A New Cytology Staining Method: A Fast Approach for Rapid On-Site Evaluation on Thyroid Fine-Needle Aspiration Cytology

Conclusions: Our data demonstrates that BlueStain ® is suitable to provide good-quality slides for primary assessments of thyroid aspirates studied by ROSE. In fact, in some aspects, this new staining method shows better preservation of colloid and cell details, revealing itself as an alternative to the DQ stain variant, upholding performance leve l while being 10 times cheaper and simpler because it requires just one step of staining.Acta Cytologica
