DOI: 10.1016/j.ygyno.2018.09.012

Abstract: OBJECTIVE Self-collected HPV testing could substantially reduce disparities in cervical cancer screening, with slightly lower sensitivity compared to physician-collected specimens cross-sectionally. We aimed to evaluate the comprehensive long-term performance of self-collected HPV testing prospectively. METHODS… read more here.
