Clinical cytology is a section of clinical morphological diagnostics that considers changes in cellular composition and allows to identify various pathological conditions of tissues and organs, as well as to conduct early diagnosis of precancerous changes, benign and malignant neoplasms. This is an actively developing branch of diagnostic medicine, closely related to the development of other fundamental disciplines (histology, pathophysiology, biochemistry, etc.), and due to the minimally invasive vector of morphological diagnostics and the high prevalence of infectious and oncological diseases in the population, this branch of medical science is becoming increasingly popular.
In Russia, clinical cytology has developed within the framework of clinical laboratory medicine, which causes a different development process from Europe, the USA and other countries of the world (where cytopathology is a section of pathological anatomy or clinical pathology).
