What is the difference between TCT and biopsy?

In our daily life, many women have suffered from gynecological diseases. The occurrence of gynecological diseases seriously affects women's normal daily life and health. Therefore, when we have gynecological diseases, we must pay attention to them and do relevant regular examinations and treatments in time. So what is the difference between cervical puncture biopsy and TCT?

The occurrence of cervical diseases poses a certain threat to women's health. Therefore, in daily life, we must pay attention to the occurrence of cervical diseases and go to a regular hospital for regular examination and treatment in time. The more common examination methods are cervical puncture biopsy and TCT examination. There are certain differences between these two examination methods, so we must actively master them to avoid falling into misunderstandings about treatment.

Cervical puncture biopsy is to obtain a part of the cells on the female cervix for pathological examination. The results produced in this case will be more accurate and belong to the category of histology. Generally, colposcopy can be used for examination, and female secretions can be obtained for examination. The TCT examination refers to the acid-fast staining of cells, which is mainly suitable for use on female secretions and is used for cell examination. The main difference between the two is that cervical puncture biopsy can effectively perform pathological examination on tissue lesions, while TCT is mainly for examination of secretions.

There are significant differences in the functions of the two. In addition, cervical puncture biopsy is more accurate. Therefore, for female friends with serious conditions, they must choose to undergo puncture biopsy. TCT is mainly for women who suspect that certain symptoms have occurred but cannot be distinguished and need pathophysiological examinations, and thus use female secretion tests. If the condition is serious, a puncture biopsy is also required.

After the introduction above, do you understand the difference between cervical puncture biopsy and TCT? These two are relatively common methods used for gynecological examinations, but both have their own advantages. Therefore, in daily life, if female friends go for a check-up, they should follow the doctor's advice to choose the examination method.
