Cell examination of specimen, selective cellular enhancement technique

Cell examination of a specimen using selective cellular enhancement technique is a lab process that improves the visibility of certain cells in a sample. It helps in identifying abnormalities or diseases. The process is non-invasive, safe, and aids in accurate diagnosis.

This service was performed 74 times for 70 patients

Detection test by nucleic acid for human papillomavirus (hpv), high-risk types

This test detects high-risk types of HPV, a common virus. It's done by analyzing a small sample of cells for the presence of HPV DNA. The aim is to identify any high-risk types early, as they may increase the risk of certain health issues.

This service was performed 135 times for 131 patients

Detection test by nucleic acid for human papillomavirus (hpv), types 16 and 18 only

This test identifies specific types of HPV, a common virus, by examining your body's cells for the virus's genetic material. It's specifically designed to detect types 16 and 18, which are often associated with certain health risks. The procedure is safe and simple.

This service was performed 31 times for 30 patients

Detection test by nucleic acid for multiple organisms, amplified probe(s) technique

This is a test that identifies various microorganisms in your body using a method called amplified probe technique. It targets specific genetic material (nucleic acids) of the organisms, amplifying them for easy detection. This helps in diagnosing infections accurately.

Infectious agent detection by nucleic acid (dna or rna); human papillomavirus (hpv), high-risk types (e.g., 16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59, 68) for cervical cancer screening, must be performed in addition to pap test

This service detects high-risk types of HPV, a common virus, by analyzing DNA or RNA. It's an essential part of cervical cancer screening, performed alongside the Pap test. This dual approach enhances accuracy, aiding early detection and treatment.

This service was performed 109 times for 109 patients

Measurement of rna of bacteria in vaginal fluid specimen

This is a lab test where a small sample of fluid is collected from the female body's lower region. The test measures the RNA (genetic material) of bacteria in the sample. This helps doctors understand the types and amounts of bacteria present, aiding in diagnosis and treatment.

This service was performed 219 times for 197 patients

Pap test

A Pap test is a routine exam that checks for changes in cells that could signal a health concern. During this test, a small sample of cells is gently collected from the lower region of the body. The sample is then examined under a microscope to ensure everything looks normal.

This service was performed 12 times for 12 patients

Pap test, automated thin layer preparation; automated system and manual rescreening

A Pap test is a screening tool that helps detect unusual cells. The automated thin layer preparation involves placing your cell sample in a thin layer on a slide. An automated system then scans the slide, and experts manually review any areas flagged by the system. This method enhances the accuracy of the results.

This service was performed 303 times for 284 patients

Pathology examination of tissue using a microscope, intermediate complexity

A pathology examination of tissue with intermediate complexity involves studying a small sample of your body tissue under a microscope. This helps in identifying any abnormal cells or signs of disease. It's a detailed process requiring expert analysis to ensure accurate results.

This service was performed 37 times for 21 patients

Screening cytopathology, cervical or vaginal (any reporting system), collected in preservative fluid, automated thin layer preparation, with screening by automated system and manual rescreening under physician supervision

This is a procedure to check for abnormal cells in the lower part of the womb or the birth canal. Cells are collected in a special fluid and prepared in a thin layer. They are then examined by an automated system and manually reviewed by a doctor for accuracy.

This service was performed 1,428 times for 1,428 patients
