The collected cells are examined microscopically by a qualified specialist.

Cytopathology vs Histopathology

Cytopathology: Examines individual cells or small cell groups.

Histopathology: Examines larger tissue samples and tissue architecture.

Both are branches of Pathology, but they provide different types of diagnostic information.
