The journal covers all aspects of cytology, including fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC), gynecological cytology, non-gynecological cytology, cytopathological techniques, molecular cytology, cytochemistry, and immunocytochemistry. It also publishes studies related to new diagnostic methods, imaging techniques, and advancements in cellular pathology. The Journal of Cytology follows a rigorous peer-review process to ensure scientific accuracy, originality, and ethical standards in publishing. It accepts original research articles, review articles, case reports, brief communications, and editorials. Being an open-access journal, it provides free availability of published content, increasing global reach and citation potential.
