- GastroenterologyThe cytology department works directly with multiple disciplines including radiology, pulmonology, and gastroenterology by providing on-sight immediate evaluation of cytology specimens during procedures for both inpatients and outpatients. By providing on-sight evaluations of all types of FNA procedures, HPC ensures the collection of quality specimens that allows them to provide the most accurate interpretation possible. Working with various departments within the hospitals such as ultrasound and CT as well as inpatient bedside assistance, immediate evaluation of FNA specimens during the procedure often eliminates the need to repeat aspirations, reducing patient discomfort and anxiety.
