Abstract
Background of the study: Early detection of the precursor lesion before the invasive stage of cervical cancer prevents further damage to the neighbouring tissues and organs. Bethesda system which applies cytological techniques is primarily used as a screening test while Richarts score is based on predicting the biological behaviour of abnormal epithelium. Laboratories in not so wellendowed settings should find the most predictive technique in assessing the cervical lesions.
Objective: To Compare Bethesda System and Richart Score in the evaluation of Cervical Lesions among women on contraceptives attending Machakos Level V Hospital.
Design: A descriptive cross-sectional study.
Setting: Machakos level V Hospital, Machakos County, Kenya
Subjects/participants: One hundred and seventy-six (176) women aged >22
