Colposcopy

Colposcopy is a special examination of the cervix performed when there is an abnormal pap smear. The cervix is prepared with special stains to make abnormal cells stand out. Sometimes a biopsy is performed to evaluate those cells further. This exam is performed right in the office at Carteret Ob/Gyn. No special preparation is needed. It is very similar to the process of getting a pap smear.
