Cervical Pap Smear Screening: Is it really useful in Indian scenario?
Keywords:
Cervical cancer screening, Pap smear, Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia(CIN), Human papilloma virus(HPV)
Abstract
Cervical cancer is the leading cancer in women in India and worldwide. It is unique in providing long window period amenable for early detection in precancerous state through suitable screening tools. Pap smear remain important screening modality. Proper selection of screening method in community setting is a matter of debate.
