Cytology Testing at Assure Speciality Laboratory – Serving Kolkata, Sonamukhi & Purulia

At Assure Speciality Laboratory, we provide advanced cytology testing services across our fully-equipped branches in Kolkata, Sonamukhi, and Purulia, West Bengal. Cytology is a crucial diagnostic technique that examines cells to detect diseases such as cancer, infections, and inflammatory conditions. By analyzing cell samples from various body fluids or tissue scrapings, cytology enables early diagnosis and timely medical intervention, improving treatment outcomes significantly.

Our laboratories are staffed by skilled cytopathologists and supported by the latest diagnostic technology to ensure high precision and consistency in test results. Whether it’s a routine Pap smear or a targeted FNAC (Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology) for a suspicious lump, our team delivers reports that clinicians can trust.

What is Cytology and Why is It Important?

Cytology, also known as cellular pathology, involves the microscopic study of individual cells to identify abnormalities. It plays a pivotal role in the early detection of cancers, including cervical, thyroid, breast, and lung cancers, as well as various infections and autoimmune disorders. Unlike full tissue biopsies, cytology is minimally invasive, often requiring just a fluid sample or a fine needle aspiration.
There are two primary types of cytology:
• Exfoliative Cytology, where cells are collected from body surfaces or secretions such as in Pap smear tests.
• Aspiration Cytology, where cells are extracted using a fine needle, such as in FNAC procedures targeting lymph nodes, breast tissue, or thyroid.
Timely cytological analysis helps in the early identification of cellular abnormalities, facilitating quicker treatment decisions and better patient care.

Types of Cytology Tests Available


At Assure Speciality Laboratory, we offer a comprehensive range of cytology tests designed to diagnose a wide spectrum of conditions. These include:

  • Pap Smear (Cervical Cytology) – A routine screening test for detecting precancerous and cancerous changes in the cervix.
  • FNAC (Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology) – Commonly used to investigate palpable lumps or swellings in areas such as the thyroid, breast, lymph nodes, or soft tissues.
  • Urine Cytology – Helps detect abnormalities in the urinary tract, including bladder cancer and infections.
  • Sputum Cytology – Evaluates cells from the lungs to aid in the diagnosis of lung infections and malignancies.
  • Body Fluid Cytology – Analyzes fluids such as pleural, peritoneal (ascitic), and cerebrospinal fluid for signs of infection, inflammation, or malignancy.
All tests are conducted under stringent quality control standards to ensure diagnostic accuracy and reliability.

Who Should Consider a Cytology Test?

Cytology tests are recommended for individuals experiencing unusual symptoms such as persistent swelling, unexplained pain, abnormal discharges, or visible lumps. Women are particularly encouraged to undergo regular Pap smear tests as a preventive measure against cervical cancer. Cytology is also advised when doctors suspect malignancies, infections, or autoimmune conditions that require cellular evaluation.
