This lecture is a synopsis of the WHO’s Cervical cancer screening programmes: Managerial guidelines (Miller AB, 1992) manuscript. It outlines the managerial factors to consider when setting up a cytology screening programme.

Its sister book “Cytological screening in the control of cervical cancer: technical guidelines” covers the technical aspects of programmes including taking of smears and their examination; reporting of procedures; monitoring and evaluation of the system, personnel requirements and training; and equipment and supplies required. These technical aspects will not be covered in this lecture.
