This research paper: 5 pages in length. Prevention can mean the difference between life and death when it comes to cancer, which is why the cervicovaginal smear, otherwise known as Pap smear, is one of the most effective screening tools for women still utilized today. Developed decades ago by Dr. George Papanicolaou, the Pap smear is considered one of but a handful of diagnostic tests that can "detect the presence of a premalignant lesion allowing for the prevention of cancer" (Anonymous, 2002). By comparison, the preventative nature of Pap smear results rivals that of most all other tests, in that existing technology finds cancer once it has already had time to progress, making it extremely difficult in many cases to prevent cancer-related death. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
