About This Test
FNAC reporting is booked when FNAC is done through CT guided FNAC or USG guided FNAC where our pathologist just needs to do the reporting only. The collected material is then smeared on slides, stained, and examined under a microscope. The reporting of FNAC helps determine whether a lesion is non-cancerous (benign), cancerous (malignant), or infectious/inflammatory. This test is done to diagnose tumours, detect infections, evaluate cystic lesions.
