Summary

The overall objective of this study is to evaluate whether fluorescence and reflectance spectroscopy can improve the ability to detect the presence of premalignant lesions on the cervix.

The specific aims of the study are:

* To compare information obtained from fluorescence and reflectance spectroscopic measurements of the cervix with standard methods for detecting cervical pre-cancers.
* To validate previously developed algorithms for discriminating between normal and pre-cancerous tissue based on spectroscopic measurements.
* To evaluate the safety of spectroscopic measurement of cervical tissue.
