145 endometrial cytologic samples were taken by Endocyte and they were compared to histologic samples. The diagnostic concordance was 96.55%, proliferative endometrium, secretory endometrium, hyperplastic endometrium and carcinoma were screened and only 2.75% of cases were uncertain. Endometrial cytology is advantageous because Endocyte can be used in the out-clinic without risks for patients.
