Description

A colposcope is a medical device used for examining the cervix, vagina, and vulva for signs of abnormality or disease, such as cervical cancer or genital warts. It provides magnified visualization of the tissues using a bright light and a binocular lens system. Colposcopy is commonly performed as part of cervical cancer screening or to investigate abnormal Pap smear results. Colposcopes are essential tools in gynecology clinics and colposcopy units, aiding in the early detection and management of gynecological conditions.
