متن کاملAnalysis of Diagnostic Value of Cytological Smear Method Versus Cell Block Method in Body Fluid Cytology: Study of 150 Cases
BACKGROUND Aspiration of serous cavities is a simple and relatively non-invasive technique to achieve diagnosis. Cytologic evaluation of body cavity fluid is diagnostically challenging. METHODS A total of 150 fluid specimens were examined for conventional cytological smear (CS) and cell block method (CB). Out of 150 fluids, 79 were pleural fluid, 69 were ascitic fluid and 2 pericardial fluid....
