Cytology, liquid-based cytology and automation

Best Practice and Research in Clinical Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 2011
Quality-assured, comprehensive, cytology-based population screening programmes have resulted in a substantial decline in the incidence of, and mortality from, cervical cancer. Cytology classification systems divide squamous cell abnormalities into low grade and high grade.

A comparison of liquid‐based cytology with conventional cytology

International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics, 2007
AbstractObjectiveTo evaluate the 2 methods of cytologic screening to detect abnormalities of the cervical epithelium.MethodsThis study with 3 groups of women was performed at Selcuk University Meram Medical School between January 2004 and March 2006. In one group (paired sample for specimen collection) women were screened with conventional cytology; in

A New, Liquid-Based Cytology Technique

Acta Cytologica, 2003
To evaluate a new liquid-based cytology technique, Papspin (Thermo Shandon, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, U.S.A.).Three thousand cervical samples were examined. Each cervix was sampled with a Cervex Brush (Roche, Oss, the Netherlands), used first for a Pap smear and afterwards for a Papspin.

Liquid‐based cytology for cervical screening

Cytopathology, 2000
England and Wales' new National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE) has completed the first of its appraisals and issued guidance on a diagnostic technique rather than a therapeutic intervention.1 It was directed to examine the use of liquid‐based cytology (LBC) for cervical screening and took evidence from a wide variety of sources.

Liquid‐based cytology improves productivity in cervical cytology screening

Cytopathology, 2006
Objectives:  The ThinPrep® test was introduced into our institution on a phased basis over 3 years between January 2002 and December 2004. This study set out to assess its effect on productivity (as measured by output of cases per medical scientist per day) during the changeover period. Numbers of high and low‐grade lesions and of unsatisfactory slides

Control specimens for immunocytochemistry in liquid‐based cytology

Cytopathology, 2011
T. Hansen, H. Pedersen, V. Brauner and J. Hariri Control specimens for immunocytochemistry in liquid‐based cytology Objective  Immunostaining necessitates the use of positive as well as negative controls, which is usually an easy procedure in immunohistochemistry (IHC).

Liquid based cytology

Obstetrics and Gynaecology Forum, 2011
The human papilloma virus has been shown to play a significant aetiological role in invasive cervical cancer. The changes caused by human papilloma virus can be evaluated using Pap smear. The discovery of Pap smears has led to an unprecedented dramatic decline in the incidence of cervical cancer over the past five decades.

Advances in diagnostic liquid‐based cytology

Cytopathology
Abstract Liquid‐based cytology (LBC) has changed the landscape of gynaecological cytology. A growing demand exists for LBC in diagnostic cytology, particularly for ancillary testing, such as immunocytochemistry and molecular testing. Ancillary testing solely based on conventional preparation (CP) methods remains challenging. Recently,

Expression of PTEN in Endometrial Liquid-Based Cytology

Acta Cytologica, 2014
<b><i>Objectives:</i></b> Endometrial cytology offers a reliable alternative to biopsy in endometrial cancer detection and it may be useful in obtaining material to study prognostic and predictive markers. Over the years, new sampling devices have been developed.
