Inhaltsangabe

Since publication of the first edition of this book, major changes have occurred in the area of cervical screening. Systematic screening programs are now fully operational and a more consistent and uniform approach has now been formulated for deciding who should be screened, how often, how results should be interpreted, how abnormalities should be followed up, and how the program should be evaluated. This new edition has been completely rewritten, providing necessary information for family practitioners, practice nurses, and practice managers to set up and run a contemporary and efficient service. The book includes up-to-date background material on cervical cancer, the evidence for the benefits of screening, common problems and concerns, information for patients, and follow-up. Controversies and uncertainties still surround certain aspects of cervical screening; these are identified, discussed, and debated in a pragmatic way that will be of interest to those involved in implementing a screening program.
