Update #1 ·

Added: May 19, 2008 11:11 am The ThinPrep 2000 Processor is an automated slide preparation unit used with the ThinPrep Pap Test for cervical cancer screening and for non-gynecological specimens such as for the diagnosis of cancers of the lung, bladder, and gastrointestinal tract. The processor uses a membrane technology that controls dispersion, collection and transfer of diagnostic cells from the sample to the slide. This ensures that the slide is representative and reproducible of the original sample collected in the vial. Because the supplies for this processor such as the sample vial, filters and processing fluids are manufactured specifically for use in conjunction with the controlled membrane transfer technology developed by Cytyc, only their supplies can be used with this processor.
