Cytology is the scientific study of cells, focusing on their function and growth, and is crucial in diagnosing diseases through the examination of cells from body fluids or aspirated materials. The field includes six main branches: cytotaxonomy, cytogenetics, cell physiology, cytochemistry, cytopathology, and cytoecology, each combining cytology with another scientific discipline.
