title: A new method of endometrial cytological sampling--the Gynoscann: a comparison with Vabra curettage.
abstract: A new method of outpatient endometrial sampling--the Gynoscann--has been evaluated in a pilot study by comparing it with Vabra curettage. This method was well tolerated by patients, and produced samples that were similar to or better than those from Vabra curettage. We recommend that sampling by the Gynoscann be considered as the first investigation for abnormal uterine bleeding.
