Abstract excerpt
The accurate detection and typing of high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) are critical for cervical cancer screening. The Hybrid Capture 2 (hc2) and cobas HPV tests showed high agreement for cervical samples (94.4%, κ=0.72, n=693) and moderate agreement for vaginal samples (κ=0.62, n=108). The HPV16 and HPV18 results were highly consistent between the cobas and Linear Array tests (κ≥0.96, n=197). Three...
