DEVICE AND APPARATUS TO FACILITATE CERVIX CANCER SCREENING

摘要

An apparatus for detecting cervical cancer comprising a mechanical structure configured to expose cervical region comprising a supporting, rod, and an image capturing, unit to capture cervix images and determine abnormalities in the cervix region based on preprogrammed instructions, wherein the image capturing unit is coupled to the mechanical structure on the supporting, rod. The image capturing unit is coupled to the mechanical structure by means of a detachable unit mounted on the supporting rods of the mechanical structure. The detachable unit comprises a housing to hold the image capturing unit and at least a pair of extension hooks outside its. peripheral surface to mount on the supporting rods securely. The image capturing unit captures, plurality of images before and after application of a chemical substance en the cervix region and determines abnormalities based on temporary change in color and texture of the cervix region due to application of the chemical substance.
