In such background, this study investigates agreement among pathologists regarding visual perception of nuclear chromatin of non- neoplastic cervical squamous epithelial cells. The findings would build a rational basis for future improvement in the diagnostic criteria of cervical Pap smear test. METHODS:...

According to these guidelines for Pap smear diagnosis of Atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance, reflex high risk (HR) human papilloma virus (HPV) genotyping is required among women 21years of age or older. Whereas, in women of 30 to 65years of age, HR-HPV can be ordered by ...
However, evaluation of the Pap test relies on subjective diagnostic parameters and is affected by a high rate of false-positive and false-negative results. More objective diagnostic parameters to identify truly dysplastic or neoplastic cells in cervical smears as well as in cervical biopsy samples ...
