Microscopic Certainty When It Matters Most
Histopathology is the undisputed foundation of surgical oncology and precision medicine. When a physician discovers an abnormal lesion, lump, or ulcer, tissue biopsy analysis is required to determine whether it is inflammatory, benign, or malignant.
At Medchikitsa, every biopsy specimen is processed with modern tissue microtomes and stained using automated protocols. Suspected neoplastic cases undergo meticulous microscopic evaluation, including tumor typing, histological grading, depth of invasion, and margin clearance.
-
Biopsy Evaluation (Small to Large Resections): Detailed grossing, tissue embedding, serial sectioning, and H&E reporting.
-
FNAC (Fine Needle Aspiration): Safe, outpatient diagnostic sampling of breast, thyroid, and salivary lumps.
-
Liquid-Based Cytology (LBC): Superior cervical cancer screening with higher detection rates than conventional Pap smears.
-
Special Cytochemical Stains: Periodic acid-Schiff (PAS), Giemsa, Ziehl-Neelsen, and mucin stains for rare lesions.
