Goals of Cytological Investigation

Screening – detection of symptomless

lesions

Diagnosis of pathological lesions found

introductory (followed by histol.)

final

Expectations

Clinician from his pathologist:

confirmation of neoplasm dg.

nosological classification

grading, staging

prognosis

reaction to the therapy

recurrence recognition

Expectations

Pathologist from his clinician:

information: local.,size, duration,

former dg. a treated neo, clin. dg.

diagnostic material acquisition

correct interpretation of the

pathologist´s report

Cervical cancer screening coverage in 2016

Estimated coverage of the population aged 25–29

years in 2016: 57,9 %The rate is calculated as the ratio of the number of women examined by screening cytology in 2016 (in a

given age group) and the number of women in the target population in 2016.

Due to the fact that hash values of birth certificate numbers are not available in the registry, data can be

slightly biased by duplicate records of screening examinations in different laboratories.

Estimate of population coverage

Estimated coverage of the population aged 25–29 years

by screening cytology in 2015-2016: 78,7 %

The rate is calculated as the ratio of the number of women examined by screening cytology in 2015

or 2016 (in a given age group, age at the latest examination) and the number of women in the target

population in 2016.

Due to the fact that hash values of birth certificate numbers are not available in the registry, data can be slightly biased by duplicate

Projekt EUROCYTOLOGY je podporován z programu Leonardo da Vinci s cílem zlepšit přístup

k materiálům pro výcvik klinické cytologie a harmonizovat výcvik v této důležité subspecializaci

patologie v Rámci EU. Vezměte prosím v úvahu, že jednotlivé národní jazykové verze se mohou

v souvislosti s různým curriculem mírně lišit.

Introduction: The Eurocytology website was

originally developed with Leonardo funding in

2005-7. It was formerly available in 6

languages (English, Spanish, Italian, Greek, Polish and Hungarian).

The Czech Association for Clinical Cytology

participated in the Leonardo Da Vinci

Programme 2011 initiative and became an

official partner in the second phase of the

Eurocytology project 2013-2015.

Objective: To update the Leonardo –

Eurocytology Project 2013-15 and the Czech

Society for Clinical Cytology contribution.

Methods: Description of activities undertaken

–collaboratively and internationally.

Conclusion: The updated website

www.eurocytology.eu increases the level

of cytopathology education

in the Czech Republic.

Results:

• All current modules of the former website

have been translated and incorporated into

the curricula of the cytotechnology and

cytopathology education.

• Prague hosted in September 2014 the

international working session.

• The Czech partners have reviewed the

updated chapters of gynaecology cytology

written by Amanda Herbert.

• The details of the platform are disseminated

during the national cytology and pathology

congresses, workshops and seminars.

• The feedback from the website users

proves increasing interest among the Czech

specialists.

• Due to lack of a language barrier the Czech

language version may serve the Slovak

colleagues tutorials as well.

The use of the

original

Eurocytology

website has

significantly

exceeded

expectations.

In 2013 it received

on average 50,000

visits and 75,000

pages downloaded

/ month.THE NEW WEBSITE

will provide during 2015

updated content of the

former chapters

The Czech

and

Slovak Republic

specialists

start to emerge

among

the website users

ADDITIONAL

PLANNED

CHAPTERS

• Colposcopy

• Self assessment

for each chapter• 10 Virtual slides for

each chapter

• Immunocytochemis
