Sampling methods and their prospects in liquid-based cytology of oral mucosa: A comparative study
Examining epithelial cells in the mouth cavity is simple and non-invasive with exfoliative cytology. Liquid-based cytology is an additional diagnostic technique that can improve the specificity and sensitivity of conventional cytology. The purpose of our

Comparative analysis of oral rinse-based cytology and conventional exfoliative cytology
Oral exfoliative cytology is a novel technique of using cells to detect dysplastic changes in the oral cavity in potentially malignant disorders and malignant oral lesions in resourced challenged areas. The aim of this study was to compare specimen adequacy and cellular clarity between oral rinse-based smears and conventional smears in normal controls,
