One sample. One lab. One report. NW Pathology now offers comprehensive, in-house Women’s Health testing and reporting. Beginning August 2012, HPV testing will be performed in our Bellingham lab. This change will reduce turnaround time and paperwork for referring providers and allow us to provide improved quality and service for these vital women’s health indicators. HPV and CT/NG testing can be performed on one ThinPrep specimen – no additional patient sample is needed. Results will be provided in one comprehensive report that will include Pap, cytologic examination, HPV, and CT/NG results (if ordered). Northwest Pathology, PS NWP employs imager assistance, which has increased sensitivity for detecting abnormal cells 3614 Meridian Street, Suite 100 Bellingham, WA 98225 Nwpathology.com Phone:(360) 734-2800 ● (866) 750-1028 ● Fax:(360) 734-3818 CYTOLOGY REPORT Patient: Relevant clinical history MRN#: Acct #: DOB/Age/Sex: Phone Number: Physician: Location: Copy To: Summary of three most recent Pap results HPV testing, including 16/18 genotyping (when requested) John W.

Fortna MD PhD Pathologist Electronically signed 7/19/2012 8:01:06AM Other relevant findings for microorganisms The pap smear is a screening test and should not be used as the sole means of detecting cervical cancer. Both false-positives and falsenegatives can occur. Infection by High-Risk HPV (Types 16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59, 66 and 68) may be associated with precancerous lesions or cancer of the cervix. This test was performed at NWP utilizing amplification of target DNA by FDA-approved Roche Cobas platform. Page 1 of 1 Questions? (360) 734-2800 • [email protected]
