Could a simple swab at home replace a Doctor's visit for cervical cancer screening?
NCT ID NCT05600283
Summary
This study tested whether a self-collected vaginal swab kit could accurately detect HPV, the virus that causes cervical cancer, compared to the standard test collected by a doctor. Over 200 women at Mayo Clinic used the kit and then had the standard exam to compare results. The goal is to see if this easier, at-home method could make cervical cancer screening more accessible.
