"HPV Detection Methods: Towards Personalized Prevention" offered for free access

Is There Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) Risk in Your DNA?

By Elizabeth Leber on May 26, 2017
hpv needle image “I was first diagnosed with HPV when I was 21 years old. And of course, my first initial reaction was disgust with myself (and my past partner I had), sadness, anger, confusion and probably most of the similar emotions a person would feel if/when they first find out they had an STD,” per an American Sexual Health Association testimonial. Human papilloma viruses (HPVs) are small, double stranded DNA viruses that are one of the leading risk factors associated with cervical intra-epithelial lesion creation and cervical cancer development. While HPV detection techniques exist, they desperately need modified to better detect and prevent this virus from leading to cancer.

Drs. Aris Spathis, Abraham Pouliakis, Stavros Archondakis and Petros Karakitsos lead the medical exploration of HPV detection in the book chapter titled “HPV Detection Methods: Towards Personalized Prevention,” which discusses the various techniques available for HPV detection and monitoring. This chapter also identifies the direction of future research since the creation of new tests will more easily identify women at true risk for cancer development since cervical cancer remains a public health issue ranking in the top ten in both in developing and developed countries.

To learn more about HPV, access "HPV Detection Methods: Towards Personalized Prevention" for free now.

This article is also featured in the title Handbook of Research on Trends in the Diagnosis and Treatment of Chronic Conditions, which features international perspectives on cancer identification, treatment and management methodologies in addition to patient considerations and outlooks for the future. This collection of emerging research provides valuable insight for researchers, graduate-level students and professionals in the medical field.
