Ciliated columnar is a type of cell. Ciliated means that it has tiny hairlike projections on top of the cells that are usually used to capture unwanted pathogens and bacteria before they can do any damage to the body. Columnar is simply the shape of the cell. The cells are tall and skinny, shaped almost like a pillar from a building.
