Re: Thin Prep versus PapSureFrom: Larry Glazerman (l.glazerman@rcn.com)Thu Sep 27 10:14:32 2007
Any pap smear is a sampling procedure. Whether cells are missed on the cervix itself, left on the spatula while transferring to a slide, or left in the solution, it is never possible to evaluate all of the cells. My understanding of the data is that any of the liquid based methods allow for appropriate sampling of the cell population during processing. I'd love to see the data your pathologist is relying on to make that conclusion.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
