The importance of combined HPV and CINtec ® PLUS genotyping testing for p16 in women with cervical squamous cell carcinoma
CONCLUSIONS: The p16 marker (CINtec® PLUS) can be used as a prognostic biomarker and provides clinical usefulness through increased sensitivity (Se) and specificity (Sp) in the triage of women at risk of developing precancerous lesions, compared to cytology that is based on morphology, but has a rather low Se and high Sp, while HPV testing is very sensitive but slightly more specific.PMID:38527989 | DOI:10.47162/RJME.65.1.12
