Medical device for conducting papanicolaou (Pap) test

A medical device for conducting a Papanicolaou (PAP) test comprising:

• (a) an elongated protective guide having a first elongated chamber and a second elongated chamber, the first elongated chamber and the second elongated chamber extending from a proximal end of the elongated protective guide to a distal end of the elongated protective guide, wherein the first elongated chamber and the second elongated chamber are integrally formed within the elongated protective guide;
• (b) a device positionable within the first elongated chamber of the elongated protective guide, the device having a camera and a light emitting device assembly, wherein the first elongated chamber comprises a lip stopper, and wherein the device contacts the lip stopper to prevent the device from moving out of the first elongated chamber, and wherein the lip stopper comprises a hollow middle that avoids creating a barrier in front of the camera and the light emitting device assembly of the device to provide better visualization of a targeted cervical area by the camera;
• (c) a cell extraction device slidably positioned within the second elongated chamber of the protective guide, the cell extraction device having a handle at a first end and one of a cell-extraction brush or a cell-extraction spatula at a second end, opposite the first end, wherein the second elongated chamber comprises a displaceable seal positioned within the second elongated chamber, the displaceable seal configured to protect the cell extraction device from contamination during insertion of the elongated protective guide, the displaceable seal being displaceable by advancement of the cell extraction device to enable the cell extraction device to contact the cervix;
• (d) a computing device in communication with the device, the computing device having a processor and a memory having a software module executed by the processor;
• and
• (e) a display in communication with the computing device, the display adapted to display the targeted cervical area imaged by the camera of the device to assist the user in positioning the one of the cell-extraction brush and the cell-extraction spatula at a transformation zone of the cervix.
