Fine needle aspiration biopsy in low- and middle-income countries
Fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC), can provide minimally invasive, cost-effective tissue diagnosis with rapid assessment and specimen triage, which is advantageous in these resource-limited settings. Nevertheless, challenges such as equipment shortages, reagents, and lack of trained personnel exist. This article discusses the effectiveness of FNAB for diagnosis of malignant and inflammatory conditions across various organs, such as lymph nodes, breast, soft tissue, and thyroid and advocates for increased training opportunities and collaboration with academic centers to enhance diagnostic accuracy and access to pathology services.
期刊介绍:
Diagnostic Cytopathology is intended to provide a forum for the exchange of information in the field of cytopathology, with special emphasis on the practical, clinical aspects of the discipline. The editors invite original scientific articles, as well as special review articles, feature articles, and letters to the editor, from laboratory professionals engaged in the practice of cytopathology. Manuscripts are accepted for publication on the basis of scientific merit, practical significance, and suitability for publication in a journal dedicated to this discipline. Original articles can be considered only with the understanding that they have never been published before and that they have not been submitted for simultaneous review to another publication.
