When it comes to early and accurate diagnosis, AK Diagnostics ensures you receive the best medical testing services. One such advanced test we offer is the FNAC Test (Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology) — a quick, safe, and highly effective method for diagnosing various lumps or swellings in the body.

What is an FNAC Test?

FNAC stands for Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology. It is a minimally invasive diagnostic procedure where a thin, fine needle is used to collect cells from a swelling or lump. The collected sample is then examined under a microscope by an expert pathologist to identify the cause of the swelling — whether it’s an infection, inflammation, benign growth, or cancer.
