The HPV Smear (+ PAPT if positive) screens cervical cells for the presence of high‑risk HPV DNA using a cervical smear. If HPV is detected, a reflex Pap cytology (PAPT) is automatically performed, providing a two‑step assessment of cervical health.
About this treatment
This HPV Smear (+ PAPT if positive) collects a cervical smear to detect high‑risk human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA. When the HPV test returns positive, the laboratory reflexively runs a Pap cervical cytology (PAPT) on the same sample, offering a combined view of viral presence and cellular changes. The approach may support early identification of women at risk for cervical abnormalities. The appointment lasts about 30 minutes, and results are typically ready within 48 hours. The service includes the smear collection, HPV molecular analysis, reflex PAPT when indicated, and a detailed electronic report. No fasting is required.
