The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) released new guidelines for cervical cancer screening on March 14, 2012. New recommendations were also recently released by a multi-disciplinary group from the American Cancer Society, American Society for Colposcopy and Cervical Pathology, and the American Society for Clinical Pathology. The recommendations made by both groups are based on available scientific evidence and are made without regard to financial considerations.
