For samples with SIL (ei- ther high or low grade) or negative by cytology criteria, PCR and HCII have similar sensitivity and specificity to detect HPV. However, for ASCUS samples, PCR detects more HPV than HCII. This difference may be due to a lower viral load in ASCUS samples or to the fact that PCR covers more than 40 genotypes, including those which are not included in HCII (HPV-53, -62 and -66).
