Advances in HPV Diagnostic Testing: Technologies Enhancing Detection of High-Risk Strains Linked to Cervical Cancer Date: Thursday, 05 March 2026 Time: 10:55 - 11:20 AM (GMT +4)
With over 12 different types of human papilloma virus (HPV) that can cause cancer, it is the leading cause of cervical cancer in women. The HPV/Pap smear co-test has improved the accuracy of cervical cancer screening; however the test has several limitations. Recent advancements in molecular diagnostics have led to the development of genotype-specific HPV tests that accurately detect and differentiate HPV strains, including high-risk oncogenic types such as HPV-16 and HPV-18.
