Today I will take you to learn about one of our pathology programs, TCT, so what is TCT examination?"The full name of TCT examination is the abbreviation of cervical fluid-based thin-layer cell detection, which uses a liquid-based thin-layer cell detection system to detect cervical cells and perform cytological classification diagnosis. ”
I believe that female friends will see this project in the female physical examination ** during the annual physical examination, and often ignore this project out of shyness or luck, so which groups of people need to do it?
The TCT test is mainly suitable for women who have had sex for more than three years or who have sex over the age of 21, or who have married and conceived early and are worried about their ** disease. Some precancerous lesions can also be detected by TCT examination, and pathogenic infections such as trichomoniasis, mold, viruses, chlamydia, and mycoplasma can also be detected.
When you hear about precancerous lesions, cervical cancer is an important killer of women's health. Its incidence is the second highest among female malignant tumors, second only to breast cancer. If your TCT report prompts words such as "squamous cells with unclear significance", "atypical squamous cells", "low-grade lesions" or "high-grade lesions", you should pay attention to it, indicating that the body has alerted you, and then the doctor will recommend HPV testing or biopsy if necessary to further clarify the lesions.
Having said so much, I believe everyone also knows the importance of this examination, and I understand that every year in various communities or hospitals will hold free cervical cancer screening activities, it is recommended that female friends of appropriate age have a check-up once a year, the body is the capital of the revolution, and finally I wish everyone good health!List of high-quality authors
