Cervical Screening Programme

Background

Cervical cancer is common in Hong Kong. Regular Cervical Screening is proven to be an effective way of preventing cervical cancer.

The Government promotes cervical screening in collaboration with the healthcare sector to facilitate and encourage women to have regular cervical screening to prevent cervical cancer. To facilitate sharing of information among healthcare providers, the Cervical Screening Information System (CSIS) (www.csis.gov.hk) has been established. It is a computerised registry for keeping and processing related data, including participants’ personal information, screening results and next recommended screening date.
