Brief Summary:
Quality assurance of the laboratory examinations. Prospective non-interventional study with ThinPrep slides collected during the German Co-Screening Program and routinely sent to the lab to prospectively evaluate the clinical performance of the Hologic Genius Digital Cytology (DC) system vs. the liquid-based cytology (LBC) manual microscopic approach
Detailed Description:
The cause of cervical cancer is a persistent infection with high-risk types of human papillomavirus (HPV). Cytology has been the gold standard for cervical screening since the introduction of routine screening with the Pap test in the 1950s due to its effect on mortality in regions with screening programs. Since that time, there have been several technological advances (LBC, Imaging) to improve and automate cervical cytology, resulting in increased disease detection and efficiency. The Hologic's Genius Digital Diagnostics System is a CE-IVD (CE-marked in vitro diagnostic device) marked digital cytology platform. For quality assurance and to prospectively evaluate the Hologic Genius Digital Cytology (DC) system in the lab, selected routinely screened and already archived slides will be additionally reviewed with the liquid-based cytology (LBC) manual microscopic approach. Only anonymized results will be evaluated.
