Cervical cone measurements and residual disease in LLETZ conisation for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia.

Aim: To investigate the oncologically safe limits of excision in large loop excision of the transformation zone (LLETZ) conisation performed for cervical pathology.

Patients And Methods: A retrospective study conducted at the Colposcopy Unit in a University Hospital setting. Three hundred and sixty-one cases of LLETZ conisation were conducted in a 2-year period.

Dynamic spectral imaging: improving colposcopy.

Purpose: Colposcopy occupies a key role in the prevention of cervical cancer by identifying preinvasive or invasive lesions. However, colposcopy is subjective and is responsible for 52% of screening failures. Dynamic spectral imaging (DSI) is based on the objective, quantitative assessment of the acetowhitening effect.
