In this pilot implementation study, an algorithm for HPV-based screening was evaluated in a Danish setting. The results demonstrated high attendance at follow-up examinations and provided insights into the number of colposcopy referrals and the detection of CIN2 and CIN3+ cases. The results suggest that women testing positive for other hrHPV in combination with ASCUS/LSIL at primary screening could potentially be referred to repeat screening instead of an immediate colposcopy.
