Early experience with fine-needle aspiration cytology in a district general hospital

|February 1, 1987

Abstract:

The authors' early experience on introducing fine-needle aspiration cytology as a diagnostic aid into a district general hospital is presented. The use, benefits and criticisms of the technique in the assessment of breast lumps and lymphadenopathy and its peroperative applications are discussed. Results equivalent to those of specialist centres can be quickly attained.

Keywords:
