Role of Immunocytochemistry in Detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Antigen by Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology
This study tried to improve the technique's sensitivity to facilitate its use in routine laboratory practice. Nonetheless, our results showed no significant improvement over the currently popular Z-N stain, although a comparison between the ICC technique performed on smears and cell block sections showed better results in the latter.
