PAP Test for Cervical Cancer Screening in Montreal
The PAP test makes it possible to identify precancerous cellular changes that are likely to turn into invasive cancer. One in 152 women develops cervical cancer during their lifetime. If it is detected early, the chances of curing it are greater.
The Pap test offered by Centre VitaLab is the reference worldwide.
The liquid test is used to screen and detect cervical cancer, precancerous lesions, atypical cells, etc. It is superior to the conventional Pap smear method because studies have shown that it can detect more abnormal cells. It is also faster, with results generally being obtained within three working days, and allows better detection of abnormal cells, including a 64.4% increase in the detection of HSIL+ (high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion), an important precancerous condition.

Frequently Asked Questions
PAP tests play a crucial role in detecting abnormal cervical cells that may result from infections like HPV. Left untreated, these abnormalities can progress to cervical cancer over time. One out of 152 women develop cervical cancer in their lifetime.
Cervical cancer is a type of cancer that develops in the cells of the cervix, the lower part of the uterus that connects to the vagina. It is primarily caused by certain strains of the human papillomavirus (HPV).
To ensure the most accurate results, follow these preparation steps:
- Schedule your test for a time when you are not menstruating.
- Avoid sexual intercourse, vaginal douches, creams, or sprays for at least 24 hours before your appointment.
- If you are being treated for a cervical or vaginal infection, wait at least two weeks after completing treatment.
- Empty your bladder before the test to increase comfort. Proper preparation helps ensure reliable results and a smooth procedure.
For most individuals, a PAP test is recommended every three years starting at age 25 and continuing until age 70. PAP tests are often recommended for individuals experiencing abnormal vaginal bleeding or discharge, as these may be signs of cervical abnormalities. If abnormal results are found, a follow-up procedure like a colposcopy may be recommended for further evaluation
