CERTAIN Study

Clinical study excellence with impactful results
 
The (CERvical Tissue AdjunctIve aNalysis) study is one of the largest, most rigorous immunohistochemistry clinical studies.
 

As a result of the CERTAIN Study, CINtec® Histology achieved ≥ 99% acceptability for staining, morphology, and background.1 CAP (College of American Pathologists), the ASCCP and WHO (World Health Organization) recommend the adjunctive use of p16 IHC in evaluation of cervical biopsies.

LAST Recommendations

 

In 2012, CAP and ASCCP issued the Lower Anogenital Squamous Terminology (LAST) recommendations.2 The LAST recommendations introduce unified diagnostic terminology for HPV-associated squamous lesions of the cervix and lower anogenital tract, a measure intended to improve communication among pathologists and physicians, allowing for appropriate patient management.
