Service Providers for Synovial Fluid for Malignant Cells
A synovial fluid for malignant cells test is used to detect cancerous (malignant) cells in the synovial fluid, which can be indicative of joint involvement by cancer, such as in synovial sarcoma, lymphoma, or metastatic cancer. The fluid is collected through joint aspiration and examined under a microscope to identify abnormal or cancerous cells. This test is particularly useful for diagnosing joint metastases or primary bone cancers that spread to the synovium. The presence of malignant cells helps guide further cancer staging and treatment decisions.
