This introductory guide to the fundamentals of modern colposcopic practice is based loosely around the syllabus of courses run by the British Society of Colposcopy and Cervical Pathology. It gives trainee colposcopists a grounding in the basic principles without overloading them with uneccessary "weighty" information. This book should be of interest to Trainee and newly qualified colposcopists, nurse assistants, general gynaecologists, genitourinary physcians. Also trainee histopathologists, cytologists and cytoscreeners.
