Cervical Pathology

Cervical Pathology focuses on the diagnosis and investigation of diseases affecting the cervix, including inflammatory conditions, precancerous changes, and cervical cancer. Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection plays a major role in cervical disease development, making accurate screening and early detection essential for prevention and treatment. Advances in cervical cytology, histopathology, immunohistochemistry, and molecular testing have improved diagnostic accuracy and risk assessment. This area explores modern approaches to identifying cervical lesions, understanding disease progression, and implementing effective management strategies. Research in biomarkers, HPV vaccination impact, and advanced screening technologies continues to transform cervical healthcare. Improved diagnostic methods and preventive strategies contribute significantly to reducing cervical cancer incidence and improving women's health outcomes globally.
