Cervical Cancer Screening Every 5 Years OK

No authors listed. Cancer Discov. 2018 Oct.

Abstract

New cervical cancer screening recommendations from the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force offer many women a new option: being screened every 5 years using high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) testing. This change reflects new data on HPV testing, but screening every 3 years with a Pap test or every 5 years with both HPV and Pap tests remain options.
