Human Papillomavirus (HPV) identifies high-risk HPV types that can potentially cause cervical cancer, necessitating further monitoring or treatment.
Atypical Squamous Cells of Undetermined Significance (ASC-US) shows mildly abnormal squamous cells that are not clearly pre-cancerous, often requiring follow-up testing.
Low-Grade Squamous Intraepithelial Lesion (LSIL) indicates mild abnormalities in squamous cells, typically caused by HPV infections, which may resolve on their own or require further observation.
High-Grade Squamous Intraepithelial Lesion (HSIL) Indicates more severe abnormalities in squamous cells that could progress to cervical cancer if left untreated, usually requiring more immediate intervention.
Atypical Glandular Cells of Undetermined Significance (AGUS) detects abnormal glandular cells that may suggest pre-cancerous or cancerous changes, often necessitating additional diagnostic procedures.
