Uterine Cervical Neoplasm, Uterine Neoplasms
Conditions
Brief summary
The aim of the current study is to develop a near real-time system using infrared spectroscopy, that will evaluate the histological specimen that was removed from the uterine cavity during the hysteroscopy.

PROCEDUREHysteroscopy
Diagnostic procedure
DEVICEInfrared Spectroscopy
This device uses spectral absorption of the tissue taken during hysteroscopy to determine immediate diagnosis of malignancy

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Comparison of infrared spectroscopy with routine histopathology | 3 years | Tissue smears that have undergone infrared spectroscopy during hysteroscopy will have a different spectral absorption than healthy tissue, thus indicating malignancy. These results will be compared to the results of routine histopathology to determine accuracy of spectroscopy to indicate malignancy. |
