Basic Understanding of Cyto Centrifuge: A Guide to Liquid-Based Cytology and the iFuge CYTO
Cervical cancer is one of the critical problems that women face around the world. Early detection and diagnosis are of great importance in the prevention and effective management of this disease. Within the scope of diagnostic tool developments, the Liquid-Based Cytology (LBC) test is representative of a valid tool for cervical cancer screening purposes. Let’s explore the significance of the LBC test, its process, and how the iFuge CYTO enhances laboratory analysis. What is the Liquid-Based Cytology (LBC) Test? The Liquid-Based Cytology (LBC) test is a modern technology for the processing of cervical specimens for cytological assessment that provides clear advantages over conventional smear preparations. In contrast to conventional PAP smears, in which cervical cells are spread directly on a slide, LBC acquires cervical specimens with a brush and suspends them in a liquid medium. This approach offers:Improved specimen quality: Reduces overlapping cells, ensuring clearer analysis. Redu...
