January is Cervical Cancer Awareness Month

And that's why we would like to remind that the Joint Research Centre of the European Commission has available guidelines on cervical cancer screening and diagnosis.

The objective of the European Commission Initiative on Cervical Cancer (CvC) is to develop evidence-based recommendations for cancer screening and diagnosis, and a voluntary European quality assurance scheme for cervical cancer care services.

Based on the latest scientific evidence available, the EC Initiative on CvC seeks to offer clear and independent guidance on screening and care to healthcare providers and individuals.
