Studies have shown the existence of computer-recognizable subvisual markers in intermediate cells from different cervical conditions that show good potential for discriminating between such "normal" cells from patients with normal, severe dysplasia/carcinoma in situ or invasive cancer cytologies. This paper presents examples of computer graphic displays, based on these markers, that could provide recognizable diagnostic clues to the cytologist, with a discussion of some of the factors involved in the interpretation of such displays.
