About test
What does FNAC - Swelling or Tumour - INLAB measure?
Fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) evaluates cells collected from a swelling or tumour to assess their appearance under a microscope. It may help a healthcare professional investigate lumps, enlarged areas, or suspected masses and distinguish between non-cancerous, inflammatory, infectious, or potentially cancerous changes. Results are interpreted along with the site of the swelling, examination findings, imaging, and medical history.
