What is the review of cervical cancer smear tests telling us?

The biggest review of smear tests undertaken since cervical cancer screening began in Ireland has taken place. The review was led by the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists in the UK. Reports suggest that it has found hundreds of “discordant” results after re-examining the slides of over 1,000 women who had been tested for the disease under CervicalCheck. These women were given the all-clear and later developed cancer. Ivan was joined on this evening's edition of the Hard Shoulder by Lunchtime Live presenter and GP, Ciara Kelly, and also by Cian O’Carroll, a solicitor and legal representative for a number of the 221+ group.
