Wied stated in the Monograph “Cytopathology of The Uterine Cervix” Ed. Meisels and Morine, ASCP Press, that “Some tests are still going on, but they are essentially using the same old technology of the 1960 s and the 1970 s”. He evaluated the CYBEST, which we developed in 1972-1982 to be as the sublime system in the world up to the present time. The Neo Path engineering staff who developed Auto Pap, before accepted as the automated screeing system by FAD, officially offered at the meeting in Tokyo that know-how employed in CYBEST is employed in various stages of Auto Pap. This reflects Wied's description. The author presented technical know-how of the CYBEST including software program employing in CYBEST in this session. This must give significant and instructive informations for users of automation systems. Auto Map was developed in Auto Pap at our strong suggestion, following CYBEST 10 cell system. Thus, this may also give variable suggestions for the future improvement.
