Description
Pericardial Fluid Cytology involves the microscopic examination of fluid collected from the sac surrounding the heart (pericardium). This test is crucial in diagnosing conditions that affect the pericardium or the heart itself. It can help detect infections, inflammatory conditions, or the presence of cancer cells. The fluid is typically obtained through a procedure called pericardiocentesis, where a needle is used to extract the fluid. Analysis of this fluid can provide valuable insights into various cardiac and systemic diseases.
