The Wolfsburg pilot project for risk-adapted prevention of cervical cancer
On February 1, 2006, a pilot project began in Wolfsburg that was intended to examine the suitability of a new concept for preventing cervical cancer for everyday use. In order to evaluate the project, it is essential to understand the special features of cervical cancer, in particular the knowledge gained over the last three decades from basic research on the role of human papilloma viruses (HPV) in the development of this tumor.
