Cytology

StrataDx’s cytology department includes five board-certified cytopathologists with expertise in managing all levels of specimen complexity ranging from outpatient fluid-based and fine needle aspirated biopsies to in-hospital radiologically guided and intra operative stat procedures. All of our cytopathologists are also board certified in anatomic and clinical pathology and bring the depth of their laboratory experience and knowledge to not only interpreting cytology specimens, but also formulating pertinent differential diagnoses with appropriate recommendations for follow-up. All reports include a representative photomicrograph depicting the main diagnostic finding.
