Cervical cytology and Human papillomavirus (HPV) testing are effective screening techniques but both have limitations. A few recent studies in the literature have highlighted the role of co-expression of p16INK4a and Ki-67 for cervical cancer screening. The present study was undertaken to evaluate the diagnostic performance of the CINtec® PLUS kit (dual immunostaining for p16 and Ki-67) in SurePathTM liquid-based (LBC) cervico-vaginal samples.
