Authors' objectives: To determine the clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of adjunctive colposcopy technologies for examination of the uterine cervix for patients referred for colposcopy through the NHS Cervical Screening Programme; the technologies under consideration are DySIS, LuViva and Niris.
Authors' recommendations: Report finds that, for examination of the uterine cervix, DySIS (a digital video colposcope), particularly in combination with colposcopy, has higher sensitivity than colposcopy alone; DySIS plus colposcopy appears to be less costly and more effective than both the DySISmap alone and colposcopy alone. No reliable evidence was found on the clinical effectiveness or cost-effectiveness of LuViva Advanced Cervical Scan and Niris Imaging System.
