AB The cervicoscope, a camera that takes a photograph of the cervix, has been designed in America by Staff to increase the sensitivity and specificity of cervical cancer screening. There are no reports of its use in British general practice. This study found the cervicoscope easy to use in general practice and acceptable to patients. The number of abnormal screening results increased. The technique failed to detect a woman with carcinoma-in-situ.
