Methods: Between January 1, 2018, and October 31, 2022, 965 (3.7%) of 25,958 liquid-based cytology specimens were evaluated as unsatisfactory. Ninety-five (9.8%) of 965 patients were positive for hrHPV...

...Ji Eun Choi; Min-Sun Jin; Ilias P. Nikas; Han Suk Ryu Introduction: WellPrep® (WP), a fully automated, one-step liquid-based cytology (LBC) platform using an all-in-one closed chamber, has recently been developed as a next-generation LBC technology. This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic...

... with the conventional preparation can be dissolved by liquid-based cytology (LBC) preparation. The Yokohama System is a method for reporting endometrial cytology, but the system lumps cancers together and does not distinguish between histological types. The objective of this study was to clarify morphometrical...

... and developed in the field of cytopathology. Liquid-based cytology (LBC) enables standardized cytological preparation and is also applied to artificial intelligence (AI) research, but cytological features differ depending on the LBC preservative solution types. In this study, the relationship between cell...

... in the cytological triage of human papillomavirus-positive women. Methods: A total of 147 HSIL samples of liquid-based cytology (LBC) in patients with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 or 3 were obtained, and then, the relationship between cellular patterns, such as single-cell-like and syncytial aggregates...

... need for molecular testing on cytology specimens. The aim of this study was to determine the optimal preservation methods of liquid-based cytology (LBC) materials for molecular testing. Methods: Cytological samples from 35 surgical resected non-small cell lung carcinoma specimens were obtained between...

...) immunoenzyme staining combined with liquid-based cytology can serve as a noninvasive routine laboratory test for glomerular disease. Methods: The presence of PDX- and WT1-positive cells was investigated in 79 patients with glomerular disease and 51 patients with nonglomerular disease. Results: The frequencies...

... false negatives due to faulty smear preparations. Liquid-based cytology (LBC) can be advantageous in these scenarios. Hence, with an aim to investigate utility of LBC in these samples, we carried out the above study with objectives to find diagnostic accuracy of LBC and agreement of LBC with CS methods...
