How to rule out cervical cancer

How to rule out cervical cancer?

1. If it is cervical cancer, you can use the diagnosis method of cervical cancer. First, you can do a scraping cytology examination, which is also the main way to find cervical cancer. However, you must pay attention to the correct sampling site, because sometimes there can be a 5%-10% false negative rate, so you should do regular examinations based on the actual clinical situation.

2. The iodine test can also rule out cervical cancer. The normal cervix or vagina contains rich glycogen tissue, which can be dyed brown by iodine solution. If cervical erosion or cervical cancer has occurred, glycogen will generally not be present, so it will not be colored.

3. After exposing the cervix with a colposcope clinically, we can first wipe off the mucus on the surface and apply iodine solution to the middle of the cervix. If an abnormal iodine-negative area is found, a biopsy must be taken at this site for pathological examination.

4. You can also have a colposcopy. Colposcopy cannot directly diagnose cancer, but it can perform a cervical biopsy. If a biopsy is taken with the help of a colposcopy, the diagnosis rate for early cervical cancer can reach about 98%.
