A fluid sample, such as from a cyst, joint, or body cavity, is processed using a technique that concentrates the cells onto a slide for examination, and then reviewed by a pathologist under a microscope. This method helps ensure that even a small number of cells in a dilute fluid sample can be adequately evaluated.
