Description

A cervical brush is a medical device used for collecting cells from the cervix for screening purposes, such as Pap smears or HPV testing. It typically consists of a long, thin handle with a brush-like tip that is inserted into the cervical canal to collect a sample of cells. The brush is rotated gently to collect cells from the cervix’s surface, which are then preserved and sent to a laboratory for analysis. Cervical brushes are designed to be sterile, disposable, and single-use to prevent cross-contamination and ensure accurate test results. They are commonly used in gynecological examinations as part of routine screening for cervical cancer and other abnormalities.
