Abstract Liquid-based Cytology for Cervical Cancer Screening Apichote Khumsangmeun BSc (Biology) Siriwan Tangjitgamol MD Sumarin Pratumkaew BSc (Biology) Department of Anatomical Pathology, BMA Medical College and Vajira Hospital Liquid-based cytology is a new method of cervical cells sample collection and cytological slide preparation. This method gains popularity at present because a large number of cervical epithelial cells could be collected, even distribution of cells on the slides, removal and foreign bodies or inflammatory debris were removed or lysis, reduction of equivocal interpretation or false negative results, and less time for interpretation comparing to the Conventional Papanicolaou smear. Furthermore the remaining sample could be submitted for a HPV DNA testing to determine the risk group of virus which is the important etiologic factor for cervical cancer.
