The goal of screening is to detect potential diseases or conditions before they occur while avoiding misdiagnosis and the over-and under-treatment it can cause. While Pap cytology has had a positive impact on HPV and cervical cancer screening over the past 50 years, it is resource-intensive and subject to misinterpretation and missed disease.
CINtec ® PLUS Cytology is a triage test for cervical cancer screening, and the only test that uses dual-biomarker technology to simultaneously detect p16 and Ki-67 to provide a strong indicator of the presence of transforming HPV infections. CINtec ® PLUS Cytology objectively identifies transforming HPV infections in women with abnormal Pap cytology results and HPV-positive cervical cancer screening results, allowing laboratory professionals to help physicians be certain they can recommend follow-up for wom
