FNAC - Lipoma - INLAB

Fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) for a lipoma evaluates cells obtained from a fatty lump to assess whether the findings are consistent with benign fatty tissue or suggest another type of lesion. A healthcare professional may use this test when examining a soft-tissue swelling, especially if its features need further evaluation. Results are interpreted together with the clinical examination and, when needed, imaging findings.
