FNAC & Biopsy

FNAC (Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology) and Biopsy are important diagnostic procedures used to detect infections, cysts, tumors, and cancerous conditions in different parts of the body. These tests help doctors identify abnormal cells and provide accurate diagnosis for effective treatment planning.
