Brief Summary
Background/Purpose: This is a large scale, multicenter randomized clinical trial to assess the feasibility of using SurePath® in cervical cancer patients after radiation therapy by comparing the incidence of unsatisfactory smear and the accuracy of detecting cervicovaginal lesions between the SurePath® and the conventional smear. Patients and Methods: The investigators will invite all women who had received radiotherapy for cervical cancer in the investigators outpatient clinics. All enrolled cases will ask to receive randomly the SurePath® or the conventional smear. Expected Results: The investigators will get the incidence of unsatisfactory smear and the accuracy of detecting cervicovaginal lesions between the SurePath® and the conventional smear in patients who underwent radiotherapy.
