Frequently asked questions
Clear answers before your scan.
What is the difference between FNAC and biopsy?+
FNAC collects cells through a thin needle. A core biopsy collects small tissue samples. Your clinician and radiologist decide which is suitable.
Why use ultrasound or CT guidance?+
Imaging helps the radiologist locate the target and plan the needle path while considering nearby organs and vessels.
Will I need to fast or stop medicines?+
Preparation depends on the procedure. The team will review your medicines and any need for fasting or blood tests. Do not stop blood thinners without medical instructions.
Will the procedure hurt?+
Local anaesthetic may be used. You may feel a brief sting or pressure; pain control and any sedation are discussed before the procedure.
Can I leave immediately afterwards?+
Some procedures need observation. The team will explain recovery time, escort needs and activity restrictions for your procedure.
When will I receive results?+
A procedure note and a laboratory tissue or cell result are different. Pathology or microbiology testing may take additional time; confirm the expected timelines with the team.
Are procedures available as walk-ins or at night?+
These procedures require clinical review and a confirmed appointment. Call to discuss urgency and team availability.
