The American Cancer Society (ACS) is introducing two key changes for cervical cancer screening: the option of self-collection of vaginal samples for primary Human papillomavirus (HPV) testing (although clinician-collected cervical samples are still preferred) and new guidance on when individuals can safely stop being screened for cervical cancer. The update is published in a report in CA: A Cancer Journal for Clinicians.
