Back in the day when I was trying to decide which school to pick for my scholarship monies, I had a choice of the Med Tech program, the Cytology program or the Histotechnology program. I had absolutely no idea what Histology was but that is the program I choose. One of the best decisions I ever made. I have never, ever, ever been bored with this field.

Most histotechs also do cytology is most hospital settings. The only difference is that cytotechs actually have to screen the slides that the histo people prepare. I think that cytologists make slightly more money...but histology is way more fun!! I would say maybe try and go visit a lab that has both types of techs there and see what looks like it would fit you best. Good luck!!
