Several techniques are employed in cytology to study cells, including:
Staining: Different staining methods, such as Wright's stain and Papanicolaou stain (Pap stain), are used to highlight cellular components under a microscope. Cytospin: This technique concentrates cells on a slide to facilitate easier examination. Flow Cytometry: A technology that analyzes the physical and chemical characteristics of cells in a fluid as they pass through a laser. Fine Needle Aspiration (FNA): A minimally invasive method to extract cellular samples from tissues or organs for microscopic evaluation.
