Human papillomavirus (HPV) cotesting in conjunction with a PAP smear every 5 years is the preferred method for cervical cancer screening of women age 30-64 by The American Cancer Society (ACS), the American Society for Colposcopy and Cervical Pathology (ASCCP), and the American Society for Clinical Pathology (ASCP). Guidelines also recommend HPV testing for follow-up evaluation in women age 20-30 with ASC-US cytology and HPV genotyping for 16/18 is recomended when HPV is positive and cytology negative.
