HPV Screen
HPV has low-risk and high-risk genotypes. Typically, Low-risk genotypes are associated with either no symptoms or mild symptoms, such as papillomas (warts). In contrast, high-risk genotypes are strongly linked to an increased risk of developing certain cancers. This test effectively screens for 14 high-risk HPV strains (or genotypes)—16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59, 66, 68. If the test results are positive, it will accurately confirm whether your infection is caused by HPV 16 or HPV 18.
HPV 16

HPV 18
While HPV 18 is a very common high-risk genotype, it can increase your risk of developing certain cancers.
