Dyeing Degree of Satisfaction
The cytopathological sections from same patient were stained by H-E and Papanicolaou stain, respectively. Poor dyeing effect occured in10 samples by H-E stain and 11 ones by Papanicolaou stain among 180 samples. The final valid data were 164 samples. Five samples were insufficient endometrial cells in both methods possibly due to thin endometrial or technical problems. In short, the dyeing degree of satisfaction of H-E stain (94.44%) was a little higher than that of Papanicolaou stain (93.89%) without statistical significant difference (χ2 = 0.051, P = 0.882).
