Speculoscopy is a procedure in which a special blue-white light (Speculite) is used to examine the cervix for cancerous or pre-cancerous lesions.
The light is generated by a chemiluminescent light stick, which is attached to the inner side of the upper blade of the vaginal speculum by an adhesive strip.
The test can be used to complement a pap smear in screening of cervical cancer.
[1] It was FDA approved as an add-on to Pap smear screening in 1995.
[1] At this time there is no CPT/HCPCS code for this and most medical insurance companies do not cover this procedure.
