Early detection can save countless lives around the world.
VIA is an attractive alternative to cytology-based screening, especially in limited-resource areas. This simple and safe cervical cancer screening technique simplifies the process and is simply more feasible and more acceptable to women as well as providers in these particular areas.
Several long-term studies have been conducted around the world that ultimately show the effectiveness of the VIA-based screening approach. In India, for example, cervical cancer mortality was reduced by 31% over a period of 15 years among women screened with VIA.
