This atlas contains eight chapters by electrical engineering, cytotechnology, and pathology specialists from the US, who detail the history of the pap smear, its future, and the potential impact of automation and digitization in the field, and the new method of telePAPology, which uses automated cellblock preparations of liquid-based and conventional samples to produce virtual slides, and its integration with the Bethesda reporting system. The main chapters address specimen adequacy, infections, and other benign changes; epithelial abnormalities; and ancillary testing and imaging analysis. They include descriptions of cytologic and histologic criteria, images, and explanatory notes. Annotation ©2014 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
