The Importance of Screening: Screening is paramount for early detection and intervention. Key tests in this regard include:
- Pap Smear Test: A routine procedure, that involves collecting cells from the cervix for examination. This test, including Liquid-Based Cytology (LBC), detects abnormal cells, aiding in early intervention.
- HPV Test: Identifying high-risk HPV strains in cervical cells, this test, often coupled with Pap smear, enhances screening accuracy.
