Although the Papanicolaou (Pap) test is the first‐line screening method for cervical cancer, it has low sensitivity for detection of human papillomavirus (HPV)‐infected cervical lesion compared to the HPV test. The aims of this study are to determine novel cytomorphologic parameters for HPV infection in patients previously diagnosed as negative for intraepithelial lesion or malignancy (NILM) and to comparatively analyze the detection performance of 3 HPV tests: nested PCR, the DNA Chip test, and the Liquid Beads Microarray (LBMA) assay.
