Development of a database for cervical cytology reports.

Background: Cervical cancer is an important cause of female mortality. Its incidence, however, has been drastically reduced by early detection using the Papanicolaou screening method. As a result of the widespread use of this method, a large amount of cytological information has to be stored, printed and handled efficiently.
