This is an extract from the guidance. The complete guidance is available at www.nice.org.uk/dg4

1 Recommendations

1.1 DySIS is a clinically and cost-effective option, compared with standard colposcopy, for examining the uterine cervix in women referred for colposcopy, and should be considered in procurement plans for colposcopy equipment.

1.2 Current evidence is insufficient to determine whether the Niris Imaging System is a cost-effective option for use as a colposcopic adjunct for examining the uterine cervix in women referred for colposcopy.
