Conventional Pap Smear Test - Conventional PAP Smear, Slide Method

A conventional cervical smear (slide method) is a preventative screening procedure in which a sample of cells lining the cervix is ​​collected using a special swab or brush. The sample is then spread and fixed directly onto a glass slide and treated with a preservative (often ethyl alcohol). The slide is subsequently examined under a microscope by a pathologist to detect any abnormalities in the shape or size of the cells.
