  • Colposcopy Policies and Procedures

    Colposcopy helps screen patients for cervical cancer with a much higher accuracy rate than the standard Pap smear, which can give false positive results up to 80 percent of the time, according to a position paper by the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP). Doctors perform colposcopies based on recognized indications for their use, and they must undergo comprehensive training while hopefully participating in an ongoing review and education process.
