Abstract

Cervical cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer-related mortality among women globally, particularly in developing countries. This study evaluates the utility of cellular and nuclear morphometry in differentiating squamous cell abnormalities from benign conditions and categorizing these abnormalities on liquid-based cytology cervicovaginal pap smears. The study included 30 cases with confirmed histopathological diagnoses categorized into LSIL, HSIL, and SCC. Significant differences in nuclear area, perimeter, and diameter were found among the groups, enhancing the diagnostic accuracy of cervical cancer screening.
