CULTURE-CSF
A CSF Culture is a critical test that analyzes cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) to detect the presence of bacteria, fungi, or other microorganisms. This fluid surrounds your brain and spinal cord, and an infection here can be very serious.
Cyfra 21 - 1, Serum
The Cyfra 21-1 test measures the level of a protein fragment called cytokeratin 19 in your blood serum. This protein is released by certain types of cancer cells and is used as a tumor marker, primarily for monitoring purposes.
Cystic Fibrosis (CFTR) Full gene sequencing
This comprehensive genetic test analyzes the entire CFTR gene to identify specific mutations that cause Cystic Fibrosis. It provides a detailed look at your genetic makeup related to this condition.
Cystic Fibrosis mutation screening (CFTR-Del 508)
This genetic test specifically screens for the Delta F508 mutation, which is the most common genetic change responsible for Cystic Fibrosis. It helps determine if you carry this particular mutation.
Cysticercus (Taenia Solium) IgG, CSF
This test detects IgG antibodies to the Taenia solium parasite directly in your cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). It is specifically used to diagnose neurocysticercosis, an infection of the brain and spinal cord.
Cytology (Non-Gyn) Ascitic Fluid Conventional method
This test involves examining cells from ascitic fluid (fluid collected from the abdomen) under a microscope. It helps identify the cause of fluid buildup, which can be due to various medical conditions.
Cytology (Non-Gyn) CSF Conventional method
This test examines cells from your cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), which surrounds your brain and spinal cord. It helps identify abnormal cells that might indicate various conditions affecting the central nervous system.
Cytology (Non-Gyn) Drain Fluid Conventional method
This test involves examining cells from fluid collected via a drain, often placed after surgery or to manage fluid buildup. It helps determine the cause of fluid accumulation and detect any abnormal cells present.
Cytology (Non-Gyn) Other Fluids / Scraping Conventional method
This test involves examining cells from various body fluids (other than CSF or drain fluid) or tissue scrapings. It helps detect abnormal cells that could indicate inflammation, infection, or the presence of cancerous conditions in different parts of the body.
Cytology (Non-Gyn) Other Fluids Liquid based cytology (LBC)
This test examines cells from various body fluids (other than gynecological samples) using a specialized liquid-based cytology (LBC) technique. LBC helps improve cell preservation and remove obscuring material, leading to clearer microscopic evaluation. It's used to detect abnormal cells that might indicate inflammation, infection, or disease.
Cytology (Non-Gyn) Pericardial Fluid Conventional method
This test involves the microscopic examination of cells present in pericardial fluid, which is the fluid surrounding the heart. Using a conventional method, the cells are prepared on a slide and stained to identify any abnormalities. It helps in understanding the cause of fluid accumulation around the heart.
Cytology (Non-Gyn) Peritoneal Fluid Conventional method
This test involves examining cells from peritoneal fluid, which is found in the abdominal cavity, using a conventional slide preparation and staining technique. It helps identify the cause of fluid buildup in the abdomen, known as ascites. The analysis looks for abnormal cells that might indicate various underlying conditions.
