Colposcopy is a procedure performed to examine the cervix and vagina with an instrument called a colposcope. During a colposcopy, an acetic acid solution may be applied to help find any abnormal areas, which are then further examined under low-power magnification. Colposcopy is usually performed after an abnormal Pap test to determine if further testing or treatment is needed. The colposcopist uses special instruments and filters to closely examine the vagina and cervix for any signs of disease or abnormal cells.
