Description

Liquid-based cytology (LBC) is a cervical screening test used to examine cells collected from the cervix for abnormalities.

Unlike conventional Pap smears, the collected cells are preserved in a liquid medium, allowing for improved sample quality and more accurate analysis. LBC helps detect pre-cancerous and cancerous changes of the cervix and may also identify infections or inflammatory changes. This test is widely used for routine cervical screening and supports early detection, timely treatment, and improved cervical health outcomes.
