Techniques for EUS-guided FNA Cytology

Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Clinics of North America, 2014
This article addresses the technique of endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration of solid lesions to obtain cytologic specimens. The technique can be broken down into a sequence of steps. The ultimate goal is to maximize the likelihood of obtaining adequate tissue for diagnostic purposes.

Role of Ancillary Techniques in Fluid Cytology

Acta Cytologica, 2019
The cytologic evaluation of serous effusions may be challenging for a number of reasons. Distinction of benign, reactive conditions from malignancy represents the main focus when examining these specimens. The morphologic diagnosis of malignancy may be difficult due to the relative paucity of abnormal cells.

A technique for quantitative cytology of nasal secretions

European Archives of Oto-rhino-laryngology, 1991
To quantitatively analyze cellular elements in mucopurulent nasal secretions from patients with chronic paranasal sinusitis, we studied five mucus-liquefying agents--dithiothreitol (DTT), ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid tetrasodium salt, propylene glycol, serratio peptidase and urea--with Hanks' balanced salt solution used as a control.

Brush technique in ocular surface cytology

Diagnostic Cytopathology, 1997
New techniques are being searched for the evaluation of cellular morphology and population of ocular surface. Impression cytology is one of the most preferred techniques in ocular surface sampling in dry eye, keratitis, and conjunctivitis. We evaluated and compared the efficacy of impression and brush cytology in 63 patients.

Oral Cytology Techniques

2012
A significant proportion of oral squamous cell carcinomas (OSCC) develop from premalignant lesions. Histological examination of tissue remains the gold standard for diagnosis and identification of pre-malignant and malignant oral lesions, but has many disadvantages.

Immunocytochemistry: an indispensable technique in routine cytology

Cytopathology, 2011
L. Skoog and E. Tani Immunocytochemistry: an indispensable technique in routine cytology Immunocytology is today accepted as an indispensable adjunct to cytomorphology. It has led to a dramatic increase in diagnostic accuracy and also allowed the identification of markers both for prognosis and targeted therapies. Most commercially available antibodies

Technique and Interpretation of Breast Aspiration Cytology

Clinical Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1989
FNA biopsy as a diagnostic modality in breast lesions (palpable and nonpalpable) is a safe, rapid, cost-effective, and accurate method of diagnosis of breast pathology, which is beneficial to the patient, clinician, and cytopathologist. This diagnostic service has become an integral part in the workup of breast lesions in the practice of medicine today.
