What is Cytology-Pleural Fluid?
Cytology-Pleural Fluid is a cytology test used in diagnosing and typing cancer from tissue and cells. Cells from a fluid, swab or needle aspirate are examined under the microscope (or tested for HPV DNA) for abnormal or malignant cells — including early cervical changes.
Why is Cytology-Pleural Fluid done?
- Cells from a fluid, swab or needle aspirate are examined under the microscope (or tested for HPV DNA) for abnormal or malignant cells — including early cervical changes.
- Examination of tissue and cells by a pathologist is the foundation of a cancer diagnosis; IHC then identifies the tumor type and its treatment markers.
Who may be advised to take Cytology-Pleural Fluid?
- Patients who have had a biopsy, surgery, needle aspiration or bone-marrow sample, as advised by their doctor.
