European guidelines for quality assurance in cervical cancer screening: recommendations for cervical cytology terminology,(Cytopathology 2007, 18, 213–219)(external link)

The European guidelines for quality assurance in cervical cancer screening "...provides a framework that will allow different terminologies and languages to be translated into standard terminology based on the Bethesda system (TBS) for cytology while retaining the cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) classification for histology. This approach has followed extensive consultation with representatives of many countries and professional groups as well as a discussion forum published in Cytopathology (2005;16:113).

Table 1 Classification of Munich (II), modified by Soost in 1989 5.
