FNAC

Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology

At Sanjay Pathology, we provide reliable Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) services for the early detection and diagnosis of lumps, swellings, cysts, and abnormal growths. 

What is FNAC?

Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) is a quick, safe, and minimally invasive diagnostic procedure used to collect cells from a lump or suspicious area. The collected sample is examined under a microscope to help diagnose infections, inflammation, benign conditions, or cancer.
