Brief Summary
The study aims to compare the accuracy of the lateral flow test to detect HPV at the POC with commercially available HPV test and to determine the diagnostic accuracy and reliability of a multimodal optical imaging system to detect cervical dysplasia, with the gold reference standard of histopathology.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Development of multimodal optical imaging system
Image data will be used as a training set to develop and refine image analysis algorithms. Multimodal Mobile Colposcope will be compared with colposcopic impression considering clinical performance (sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values, and area under the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve)
through study completion, an average of 1 year
Study Arms (1)
Multi-Modal Optical Imaging
EXPERIMENTALMulti-modal imaging (mobile colposcopy and high resolution imaging) of study participants will be performed during the colposcopy examination. Cervical biopsies will be performed using biopsy forceps per standard protocols.
Interventions
Women referred for colposcopy due to abnormal cervical screening will be recruited into the experimental group of the study. Imaging of study participants will take place during the colposcopy examination.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- year old women
- Women with a positive cervical cancer screening test (abnormal cytology, positive VIA and/or positive HPV test)
- Women with intact cervix
- Women who are not pregnant and with a negative pregnancy test (within 14 days from the date of enrollment) ) and not currently breastfeeding
- Willing and capable of providing informed consent
You may not qualify if:
- Women under 25 or over 49 years old
- Women who have undergone a total hysterectomy (with removal of the cervix)
- Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding
