About test
What does FNAC - Arm-Forearm-Thigh swelling - INLAB measure?
Fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) of a swelling in the arm, forearm, or thigh examines cells from the lump under a microscope. It may be used to help evaluate whether a swelling is related to inflammation, infection, cystic changes, fatty tissue, or an abnormal growth. The findings can help healthcare professionals decide whether further imaging, follow-up, or additional testing may be needed. Interpretation depends on the location, appearance, and clinical context of the swelling.
