Cytology is a rapidly developing area of pathology currently undergoing many changes.

The introduction of liquid based cytology has been a major change for cervical screening.  Now  automated imaging & guided screening along with HPV testing are being introduced. Source BioScience Healthcare are at the forefront of these developments.

SurePath® is a unique liquid based cytology (LBC) system that is widely used in the UK and around the world. It is distributed exclusively in the UK and Ireland by Source BioScience Healthcare on behalf of  BD/Tripath.

Liquid based cytology  is a method of producing clear slides for both gynae cytology and diagnostic cytology specimens

SurePath® LBC enables advanced technologies such as Focal Point automated screening and adjunctive testing such as ProExC™or HPV to be facilitated. Details of these techniques and other uses of SurePath® and Focal Point are described in the following pages.
