- let us have a discussion: 宫颈液基 vs 传统刮片
Recently I noticed some topics related liquid based cytology (LBC) and conventional Pap smears (CP) in this website. We know that the price of LBC is higher than CP.
Hope we can discuss the disadvantage and advantage of both methods.
What methods are used in your hospitals?
What method you think should be used in China now or future?
Also I will find some data to let you know the main methods used in other main countries. As of May 1, 2008, the United Nations has 192 members. In China we mention 国外, which include more than 190 contries.
Thanks

I read conventional Pap smear slides for one year when I was a cytopthology fellow. Now 99% of Pap tests are Thin Pap in our hospital. We have 110, 000 Pap tests/per year. In my experience, it is much more easy to read liquid based Pap than conventional Pap if we do not consider the cost. Also pathologists can save much more time to read LBC pap than conventional Pap, small area vs entire slide. I will show you some study data in term of senstivity or specifity about the two menthods later.
As of May 1, 2008, the United Nations (联合国） has 192 members （成员国）. In China we mention 国外, which include more than 190 contries。
I spent 5 minutes with my wife's help to type few Chinese words above. My teachers did not teach me the spelling well in the elementary schoos, or I forget the chinese spelling. Ha ha.
I mentioned that because we Chinese always say 国外.......
One hospital cannot represent one country. One country cannot represent 国外.
In term of Pap test at least 95% or more of the Pap test in the US are 液基. This does not mean 液基 is used in all 国外 hospitals.
It is the same that conventional Pap may be maily used in some 外国. It does not mean conventional Pap is used in all 国外.
The United States=America, a federal constitutional republic comprising fifty states and a federal district (50 states + washington DC). The state is similar to the provience (省), but the state has more power than 省 in China.
The United nations=联合国。 Nation=contry here.
