This year's annual review looks at the effect of introducing HPV testing into the NHSCSP. It also features research analysing the relationship between falling uptake of cervical screening in hard-to-reach groups and cervical cancer incidence, and initiatives that aim to increase participation amongst women receiving their first screening invitation.


The report also contains some useful annual statistics, presented in an accessible format, including:

  • The number of women screened
  • The percentage of eligible women who are screened
  • The number of samples examined by cytology laboratories
  • The number of tests showing different types of abnormality
  • The number of women referred to colposcopy with different types of result
  • The turn-around time for results
  • The proportion of tests that are inadequate
