USG Guided Fine Needle Aspiration and Cytology at Kharghar (USG FNAC)

Precision-Guided Minimally Invasive Diagnostic Procedures

Expert USG Guided FNAC in Kharghar

Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) under ultrasound guidance is a highly accurate, minimally invasive procedure for diagnosing lumps and masses. At Pixel Diagnostics in Kharghar, our experienced radiologists perform USG-guided FNAC with precision, ensuring accurate cell sampling and patient safety.

What is USG Guided FNAC?

USG guided FNAC involves using a thin needle, guided by real-time ultrasound imaging, to extract cells from a suspicious lump or mass. The collected cells are then examined under a microscope by a pathologist. This technique is commonly used for thyroid nodules, breast lumps, lymph nodes, and other superficial or deep masses.

Advantages of Ultrasound Guidance

Real-time ultrasound guidance ensures the needle reaches the exact target area, improving accuracy and reducing the need for repeat procedures. It allows sampling of deep-seated lesions safely and helps avoid blood vessels and other vital structures.

The Procedure

The area is cleaned and locally anesthetized. Under ultrasound guidance, a thin needle is inserted into the lump. Cells are aspirated and sent for cytological examination. The procedure takes 15-20 minutes and most patients can go home immediately after.
