The results of the initial surveys in the cytology proficiency testing of the medical laboratories in the Province of Ontario, Canada, showed a high correlation between the opinions of the testing committee and the participants in the categories of "no abnormal cells," "metaplasia" and forms of "benign atypia." The proportion of times that slides were tested in the categories of dysplasia and malignancy in the surveys increased from 38% by the end of survey 3 to 46% by the end of survey 5. A progressive improvement in the diagnostic accuracy was demonstrated in the categories of malignancy and severe dysplasia while results were more variable in the categories of moderate and mild dysplasia. Several educational activities were initiated following survey 3, including development and circulation of demonstration sets of marked glass slides for repeated circulation to participants as well as copies of a slide/tape presentation describing the program and specific case material.
加拿大安大略省医学实验室细胞学能力测试的初步调查结果显示，测试委员会与参与者在“无异常细胞”“化生”及“良性异型性”形式等类别上的意见高度相关。在调查中，发育异常和恶性肿瘤类别中玻片被测试的比例从第3次调查结束时的38%增至第5次调查结束时的46%。恶性肿瘤和重度发育异常类别显示出诊断准确性的逐步提高，而中度和轻度发育异常类别结果的变异性更大。在第3次调查后开展了多项教育活动，包括制作并分发带标记的玻片示范集供参与者反复传阅，以及一份描述该项目和具体病例材料的玻片/录像演示文稿副本。
