Duties and Responsibilities:

Cytology is the study of human body cells. Cytotechnogists are specially trained clinical technologists who study human body cells. They examine cells to identify changes that may indicate diseases like cancer.

Their duties include preparing microscope slides of cell samples, examining cell samples using microscopes, identifying abnormalities in shape, size, or color, using other automated lab equipment to perform tests, and analyzing report test results to physicians.

Cytotechnologist usually works in hospitals, clinics, or private laboratories. They also work in universities or for other researchers.

Average Salary: $30, 0000 $50,000

Educational Requirements:

Students should take the most challenging high school courses in science, math, and English.
