FNAC Test – Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology

What is FNAC Test?

Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) is a minimally invasive diagnostic procedure used to investigate lumps or masses in the body. The test involves using a thin, fine needle to extract a small sample of cells from the affected tissue or organ for microscopic examination. FNAC plays a crucial role in the early detection of cancerous and non-cancerous conditions, helping doctors provide an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment plan.

Why is FNAC Test Performed?

FNAC is commonly recommended to evaluate:

• Lymph node swellings
• Breast lumps
• Thyroid nodules
• Salivary gland swellings
• Soft tissue masses
• Superficial or deep-seated tumors

How is FNAC Test Performed?

During the FNAC procedure:

1. The affected area is cleaned and sterilized.
2. A fine needle is inserted into the lump or mass.
3. Cells are aspirated using gentle suction.
4. The sample is then spread on glass slides and stained for microscopic examination.

The procedure is usually quick, safe, and causes minimal discomfort to the patient.
