What it is

A fine-needle aspiration from booking to report. Book it for a site and side. At the procedure, record the guidance (palpation or ultrasound), the number of passes, the on-site adequacy look when the lab offers one, whether the sample is adequate, and where it went: smears, a cell block, or both. Every smear and cell block is kept as a slide with its preparation, stain and where it is filed. The report uses the category system that fits the site: Bethesda for thyroid, Milan for salivary gland, the IAC Yokohama system for breast. Lymph nodes and other sites are reported in words. A category must belong to its system, and an inadequate aspirate can only take the non-diagnostic one. When a LabBridge order carries the aspirate, the report is filed and signed there. The Bone marrow tab reports an aspirate and trephine on a form built for marrow rather than a surgical-specimen template: the site, the aspirate obtained or a dry tap, the trephine core and its length as measured, the smears, imprints and sections kept as slides, the differential as counted (cells counted and percentages that add up to 100), then particles, dilution, cellularity, megakaryocytes and their morphology, the iron stain, trephine cellularity as estimated and its architecture, reticulin graded in the system the pathologist names, and the conclusion, signed in LabBridge. No reference range ships, and a reported marrow is kept as reported.

How it works

Book the aspirationPick the patient, the site and side, and the time.
Record passes and adequacyAt the bedside: guidance, passes, the on-site look, adequate or not, and smears or cell block.
Report in the right system, or on the marrow formChoose the category from the site’s system (Bethesda, Milan or Yokohama) and write the diagnosis. A bone marrow, on its own tab, is reported on a marrow form: the differential as counted, cellularity, megakaryocytes, iron, the trephine and the conclusion.

Rules it keeps

What it does not do, by design. A listing with only benefits is an advertisement.

It does not perform the aspiration or read the smear.

It never stores a category from the wrong system for the site, and it ships no reference range for a marrow differential.

A lymph node or skin biopsy still goes through the usual case.

What data does FNACDesk read and write?

FNACDesk reads FNAC and bone marrow bookings, the category systems for thyroid, salivary gland and breast and writes passes, guidance and adequacy, the slide inventory, the categorised report, signed in LabBridge, the marrow procedure, differential count and marrow report. Its data class is PHI-lite. Every app works on the same patient record — nothing is copied into a silo.

What does FNACDesk deliberately not do?

It does not perform the aspiration or read the smear. It never stores a category from the wrong system for the site, and it ships no reference range for a marrow differential. A lymph node or skin biopsy still goes through the usual case.

What happens to our data if we uninstall FNACDesk?

Procedures, slides and reports stay on record, and signed reports stay in LabBridge.
