Abstract

Automatic recommendation of a colposcopic procedure (80), further DNA testing and additional clinical procedures based on data from machine based cytological specimen scoring (22), histological specimen scoring (22), biomedical specimen scoring (22) or biological specimen scoring (22). A computerized biological specimen processing system scores a biomedical specimen taken from a patient. A functional measure of risk (130) is computed from the score, data taken about the patient, such as patient age and case history, and clinical information. The clinical information includes co-existence of disease, risk factors, and symptoms. The system automatically determines the risk category, whether low-risk (32), high-risk (54), mid-risk (52) or potential-risk (134) based on the functional measure of risk and risk thresholds (30). The system recommends cytology follow-up (70), additional clinical procedures (80), further DNA testing and specimen analysis based on the risk categories.
