FNAC for Neck Lymph Node | Price | Appointment

Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) is a minimally invasive diagnostic procedure used to collect cells from enlarged lymph nodes in the neck for examination under a microscope. It helps detect infections, inflammations, and cancerous conditions.

A USG (Ultrasound)-guided FNAC uses real-time ultrasound imaging to precisely guide a thin, fine needle to the target lymph node. This technique ensures accurate sample collection while minimizing discomfort.

Unlike traditional biopsies, this procedure is quicker, requires no stitches, and allows for faster recovery.

Our goal is to provide a stress-free, safe, and effective diagnostic procedure to assist in early detection and treatment planning.
