EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a light micrograph of cervical cancer, specifically a section through tissue from the cervix. The image highlights the presence of intraepithelial carcinoma, which is a type of cancer that manifests in this region. Cervical cancer is considered rare, but when detected early, it has an incredibly high chance of being cured. The symptoms associated with this condition include bleeding between periods, pain after sexual intercourse, and heavier menstrual cycles. It is crucial to be aware that cervical cancer often arises due to infection with certain strains of the sexually transmitted human papillomavirus (HPV). The photograph provides a detailed glimpse into the histopathological aspects of this malignant tumor within the female reproductive system. Its striking composition draws attention to the abnormality present in the cervix and serves as a reminder for women to prioritize regular check-ups and screenings. Offered by CNRI/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY, this powerful visual representation not only contributes to medical research but also raises awareness about gynecological health issues such as cervical cancer. Through its portrayal of neoplastic growths and its connection with gynaecology and oncology fields, this image underscores both the importance of early detection and ongoing advancements in medical science aimed at combating diseases affecting women's reproductive systems.
