Which strains does high risk hpv test for ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
HPV testing: HPV testing is done by a lab , and the types causing the most cancer are 16 and 18. There are other types which can cause cancer, and the lab will comment in the report as to the types present. The pap smear will detect any abnormal cytologic changes and your gyn physician will treat accordingly.
