Care and Treatment

Treatments and Diagnoses

Ultrasound (sonography)

A diagnostic technique which uses high-frequency sound waves to create an image of internal organs.

Biopsy

The removal of sample of cells or tissue via a hollow needle or scalpel to discover the presence, cause, or extent of a disease.

Colposcopy

A procedure in which an instrument with magnifying lenses, called a colposcope, is used to examine the cervix for abnormalities.

Loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP)

A procedure in which an electric wire loop is used to obtain a piece of tissue.

Cryosurgery

A procedure that involves killing the cancer by freezing the cells using extremely cold temperatures with a small metal tool placed in the tumor. Liquid nitrogen is the most common type and is sprayed on or applied with a cotton applicator to freeze growths which then shrink and fall off.  

D&C (dilation and curettage) 

A procedure in which the cervix is dilated so that the cervical canal and uterine lining can be scraped to remove abnormal tissues.

Curettage

The use of a spoon-shaped instrument called a curette to remove tissue for evaluation.
