Why Enhancing Pap Test? 50 M Pap tests per year in the U.S
15% false negatives The use of biomarker may reduce false negative readings over 50% 13,000 new cervical cancers per year in the US If MarkPap® Test were available, these numbers would have been different: 12,000 new cases, 7% false negatives 12/31/2018
