Further future plans of the department include: 1. New IHC markers for oncopathology diagnosis: Apart from the 17 routine markers that are available, the department also wants to acquire specific panel markers and latest molecular markers which are used to arrive at a precise diagnosis in oncopathology. 2. Cell block preparation: This is a technique used for processing residual material remaining after completion of cytological preparations and has the advantage of viewing multiple sections of cytological material in the form of histopathology. 3. Automated cytology systems: Liquid based cytology systems (SurePath or ThinPrep) are currently utilized to reduce debris and cell clumps in a cytological smear. Automated systems reduce the screening time and provide a cleaner background for better cytological diagnosis.
