     • A Pap test, often called a Pap smear, looks for abnormal cells that can lead to cancer in the cervix. An HPV test looks for the human papillomavirus, a virus that can cause cervical cancer. For an HPV/Pap cotest, an HPV test and a Pap test are done together.

   Can a dual stain test help prevent cervical cancer?

   • A new test, called dual stain, may help improve how doctors care for women who test positive for human papillomavirus (HPV) infection during routine cervical cancer screening, an NCI-led study has shown. HPV tests detect infections with the cancer-causing types of HPV. For most women, HPV infections go away on their own.

   How is dual stain cytology assessed in a screen and treat approach?

   • In the “screen, triage and treat approach”, the decision to treat is based on a positive primary screening test followed by a positive second test (a “triage” test), with or without histologically confirmed diagnosis. Dual-stain cytology was not assessed as part of a screen-and-treat approach.

   Can IHC stains detect cancer?

   • IHC stains are very useful in identifying certain types of cancers. For example, a biopsy of a lymph node might contain cells that clearly look like cancer cells, but the pathologist might not be able to tell whether the cancer started in the lymph node or whether it started elsewhere in the body and then spread to the lymph nodes.

   Is a dual stain test better than a Pap test?

   • For women who test HPV-positive during cervical cancer screening, the dual stain test is better than the Pap test at identifying those at increased risk of developing precancers over the next 5 years and can better guide follow-up care.

   Jun 17, 2016 · An organised screening programme has reduced the incidence of cervical cancer in the UK. Cervical screening aims to detect and treat premalignant, low- or high-grade disease. Oncogenic or high-risk human papillomaviruses (HR-HPV) account for over 99.7% of cervical cancer cases; the most common subtypes are HPV-16, 18, 31, 33 and 45.
