Human Papillomavirus (HPV) testing identifies the presence of high-risk HPV strains that can lead to cervical cancer and related abnormalities. It is increasingly adopted as a primary screening approach, either independently or alongside Pap testing (co-testing), to assess the risk of cervical disease.
The Papanicolaou (Pap) test is a cytological screening procedure used to detect precancerous and cancerous cells in the cervix, which connects the uterus and vagina. While primarily applied in cervical cancer screening, Pap tests can also detect abnormal or malignant cells in the vaginal canal in some cases.
