Cervical cancer screening typically involves TCT and ATPV tests. The main screening methods for cervical cancer are TCT and ATPV, which can be performed at the hospital after menstruation ends, provided there is no vaginal bleeding and no sexual intercourse within the prior three days. Based on the pathological examination and test results, the next steps in treatment are determined, including screening for precancerous lesions of the cervix.
