The purpose of most clinical laboratory tests is to help diagnose and monitor disease progress or the effectiveness of therapy. However, the purpose of the analysis to which this article is devoted is to prevent disease. Cytological analysis of cervical (cervical) smears is a microscopic examination of cells obtained from the surface of the cervix. We examined 842 cases in the laboratory of the Bukhara Regional Diagnostic Center during 2015 - 2019 and identified 195 ASCUS cases. Most of the abnormal smears contained cells with altered nuclear membrane or mild dyskaryosis. These patients needed targeted treatment, and rather more active supervision. They were advised to undergo re-examinations after 3 or 6 months until the atypia resolved.
