Pap and HPV Testing
Pap & HPV检测
Two tests are used to screen for cervical cancer, the Pap test and the HPV test.
宫颈癌筛查有两种方法：Pap 检测和 HPV 检测。
Your cervix is the lower part of the uterus, at the top of your vagina. A Pap test is used to check your cervix for abnormal cells. Abnormal cells can sometimes turn into cervical cancer if they aren't treated.
宫颈位于子宫下部，阴道顶部。Pap 检测用于检查宫颈内是否存在异常细胞。如果不治疗，有时，异常细胞会转变为宫颈癌。
In some cases, your cells may also be tested for infection from a virus called the human papilloma virus or HPV.
某些情况下，也检测细胞是否感染了人类乳头状瘤病毒（HPV）。
HPV causes most cervical cancer as well as genital warts. The collection of cells for both tests can be done during a pelvic exam.
HPV是大多数宫颈癌，以及生殖器疣发展的“罪魁祸首”。细胞收集可在盆腔检查期间进行。
First, your health care provider will place an instrument called a speculum into your vagina. The speculum will be opened so that your cervix can be seen.
首先，医务人员将一种称为窥阴器的器械，置入被检测者的阴道。窥阴器打开，可见宫颈。
Next your practitioner will use a scraper or brush to gently collect cells from your cervix. Your cells will be examined under a microscope at a lab to see if any of them are abnormal.
然后，医生将使用刮片或宫颈刷，轻轻地收集宫颈细胞；在实验室内，使用显微镜检测细胞是否异常。
The lab may also test your cells to see if they show signs of HPV infection. It usually takes about one to three weeks to get your test results.
医生也可以在实验室内检测细胞是否发生HPV感染。检测结果通常需要1~3周才能获得。
If you have questions about these tests or your test results, talk to your provider.
如果对这些检测方法或检查结果有疑问，请联系医务人员。
