Evaluation of p16 < sup > INK4a < /sup > immunocytology and human papillomavirus (HPV) genotyping triage after primary HPV cervical cancer screening on self-samples in China

CONCLUSIONS: Our findings indicate the promising utility of p16 immunocytology via adjusting the staining score or serving as an ancillary tool to liquid-based cytology or combining with genotyping for the triage of HPV-positive self-samples, which promotes the precise screening of cervical cancer.PMID:34059349 | DOI:10.1016/j.ygyno.2021.05.014
