Methods for fixing, stabilizing, and processing CBs are discussed, including some commercially available kits. Advantages of CBs include histology-like specimens and adequate archivable material for ancillary testing such as immunohistochemistry and DNA analysis. Limitations include longer turnaround time than routine cytology and additional cost. Applications of CB methods in veterinary medicine are reviewed. Veterinary Cytology RelatedInformation
