Summary

This trial looks at how UV microscopy can detect cervical precancer & cancer, to help diagnose & prevent it.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals undergoing cervical cancer screening or follow-up after a positive screening. It's designed to test if ultraviolet microscopy can effectively identify early changes in cervical cells that could lead to cancer.
What is being tested?
The study is testing the use of ultraviolet microscopic analysis as a tool for cervical cancer screening. It will compare the images from this new method with results from traditional liquid-based Pap tests to see how well it identifies cell changes.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves non-invasive imaging with ultraviolet microscopy, there are no direct side effects associated with the procedure itself, unlike drug treatments.
