Testing for HPV DNA has been reported
to be highly sensitive in detecting patients with
high-grade CIN and cervical cancer and in detecting
patients who are likely to have persistent disease
after therapy. This is a report of a new method for
detecting HPV infection using simultaneous immunophenotyping/ultrasensitive
fluorescence in-situ hybridization for HPV E6-E7 mRNA.
The flow cytophotometer generated data was compared
to PCR detected HPV DNA.
