Modified staining technique for the on-site evaluation of fine-needle aspiration specimens from fatty tissues.
The adequacy of on-site evaluation of fine-needle aspiration from fatty tissues can be complicated by less than optimal adherence or fixation of the aspirated cells to the surface of the glass slide. This article describes a modified staining technique that optimizes the recovery of material in such circumstances.
