Liquid-based cytology: a 25-year bridge between the pap smear and molecular cytopathology.
Since its introduction, many laboratories have started to apply LBC to exfoliative and aspiration nongynecological cytology, aiming to exploit the same advantages on different samples. In fact, LBC is well suited to meet the requirements of ancillary techniques and their routine application in pathology laboratories, with specific reference to procedure standardization, purification and storage...
متن کاملConventional Pap Smear and Liquid Based Cytology for Cervical Cancer Screening – A Comparative Study
The study was undertaken to evaluate liquid based cytology (Pap spin) and to compare the sensitivity of Pap spin with conventional Pap smear. Pap smears were taken from 160 patients with gynaecologic complaints with Ayre’s spatula and endocervical cytobrush and slides prepared. The residual material on both the spatula and cytobrush were rinsed in Pap spin collection fluid and centrifuged. Dire...

At time, however, the detection of abnormal or cancerous cervical cells can be missed due to technical and human errors. In certain cases, the Pap smear images are blurred and highly affected by unwanted noises. These factors can hide and obscure the important cervical cells morph...
متن کاملFluorescence Spectrum and Decay Measurement for Hsil Vs Normal Cytology Differentiation in Liquid Pap Smear Supernatant
Cervical smear material contains endo and exocervical cells, mucus and inflammative, immune cells in cases of pathology. Just not destroyed keratinocytes lay on the glass for microscopy. Liquid cytology supernatant apart other diagnostics could be used for photodiagnostic. The spectroscopic parameters suitable for Normal and HSIL cytology groups supernatant differentiation are demonstrated. The...

Oral contraceptives and diabetes mellitus: an update There has long been interest in the possible relationship between oral contraceptive (OC) use and diabetes mellitus. In 1991, we reported our findings (in this Journal) on 45 women who had been referred to hospital for diabetes during follow-up in the Oxford-Family Planning Association (Oxford-FPA) contraceptive study. No association was foun...
