DNA methylation analysis in self-sampled brush material as a triage test in hrHPV-positive women
17 Jul 2014
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Primary high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) testing in cervical cancer screening shows relatively low specificity, which makes triage testing necessary. In this study, DNA methylation analysis was compared with cytology for triage testing in hrHPV-positive women. Moreover, feasibility of DNA methylation analysis directly on brush-based self-sampled specimens was assessed. METHODS: Non-responding...
