Brief Summary
|
Cervical cancer is a major public health problem worldwide, being the fourth most common cause of cancer and death among women. About one in every 70 women globally develops cervical cancer at some point in her life, with India accounting for a significant portion of the deaths from this disease. There are three main ways to screen for cervical cancer: Pap smear, HPV DNA testing, and visual inspection with acetic acid Early detection of HPV infection and precancerous lesions through regular screenings can significantly reduce the incidence of cervical cancer and improve treatment outcomes. By identifying risk factors associated with HPV infection and CIN, targeted preventive measures and interventions can be implemented more effectively. Overall, this study contributes to the global effort to combat cervical cancer by informing healthcare policies and resource allocation strategies based on evidence-based screening methods. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of cervical cancer screening methods by comparing the accuracy of different screening methods by analyzing the medical records of 26,400 women who underwent screenings between 2008 and 2023 at the Department of Preventive Oncology. These findings will provide valuable insights into the performance of each screening method, aiding healthcare providers in selecting the most effective approach, especially in resource-constrained settings. |
