Abstract
BACKGROUND: Efficient quality control (QC) is essential to ensure high sensitivity of Papanicolaou (Pap) smears. For this purpose, rescreening of 10% random negative smears is ineffective. Rapid rescreening (RR) of all negative Pap smears is more practical and has received widespread acceptance, especially in Europe, although its sensitivity is difficult to monitor and its retrospective nature may influence the vigilance of the screeners. The method of rapid prescreening (RPS) overcomes these drawbacks because rapid review of Pap smears occurs before routine full screening. METHODS: All routine conventional Pap smears over 2 months underwent RPS by 12 cytotechnologists. Approximately 30 seconds were allowed to prescreen each slide. The presence of abnormal cells (atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance [ASCUS] or above), infection or endometrial cells detected on RPS was documented. All slides subsequently underwent routine full screening. Results of both screening methods were compared. RESULTS: Of a total of 8364 Pap smears, 310 (3.7%) cases were categorized as abnormal after final diagnosis. Of those, 135 were also detected on RPS (sensitivity of 43.5%). Seventeen abnormal cases were detected only on RPS: these consisted of 13 ASCUS cases, 3 low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions, and 1 high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion. The sensitivity of RPS for infections and endometrial cells was 51.6% and 28.3%, respectively. Implementation of RPS did not significantly impact the work flow in our laboratory. CONCLUSIONS: RPS is an efficient and practical QC tool. It is a reliable method with which to monitor sensitivity and reduce the false-negative rate, and because it is done before finalizing the case, it allows for timely corrections to the diagnosis and avoids the need to amend reports.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
