Abstract

Background: Artificial intelligence (AI) for cervical cancer screening and diagnosis offers promising advantages over traditional methods like Pap smear and visual inspection. AI based medical diagnostic applications provide improved accuracy by analysing data with precision, potentially reducing errors compared to subjective human interpretation. This technology automates the screening process, enhancing efficiency and decreasing the time needed for analysis and result delivery. Aim: To Screen cervical carcinoma using smart scope AI. Objectives: To compare the diagnostic accuracy of Smart scope AI, pap smear and HPE when available and categorise the patients using the images taken by smart scope and to compare the reports of smart scope with Pap smear. Materials and Methods: All subjects underwent Pap smear with smart scope imaging and HPE when indicated. Statistical analysis: The data were analysed using SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) version 20.0 software. As applicable for qualitative data, tests like the chi-square test were used for comparison of variables used in the study. Results: The impression of Pap smear was abnormal only in 4 (3.25%), smart scope was abnormal in 86 (69.9%), Out of 4 histopathology that were done, all reported with abnormal findings. Conclusion: According to our study pap smear is a better screening tool to detect cervical cancer compared to smart scope.
