Colposcopy<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Rationale:&nbsp;<\/strong>A colposcopy is a test which can be performed to diagnose genital warts on a client\u2019s cervix. During a colposcopy, a magnifying device, called a colposcope, is used to examine the cervix for the presence of genital warts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Major_Takeaway\"><\/span>Major Takeaway<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The diagnosis of genital warts involves history and physical assessment. A bright light, or a dermatoscope, can also be used to better visualize external warts. Some clients can be assessed with colposcopy, which is when a magnifying device called a colposcope is used to examine the cervix for warts. This is also helpful in identifying cervical changes consistent with human papilloma virus (HPV) that are not identifiable to the naked eye. In some cases, a biopsy can also be performed to confirm the diagnosis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Incorrect_answer_explanations\"><\/span>Incorrect answer explanations<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_Urinalysis\"><\/span>A.
