CT Guided Fnac With Processing near me in Ghaziabad

The Computed Tomography (CT) guided fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) uses a fine automated needle to collect samples of the cells. The sample of the cell or body fluid is examined for confirmation of cancer.

This test is prescribed by the doctor to diagnose and detect cancer in deep-seated organs which cannot be accessed with an invasive procedure, to evaluate the recurrence of cancer following therapy, and monitor the efficacy of the treatment (chemotherapy) for tumors already diagnosed. This test is also used to differentiate between benign tumor (localized) and malignant tumor (spreading cancer) and to diagnose cancers like breast, prostate, blood, and lungs.

CT exams generally use a small amount of radiation and are therefore considered relatively safer as compared to X-rays.
