About This Study
The purpose of this study is to compare three methods of collecting anal swabs for testing HPV and anal cancer. These methods include patients collecting swabs at home, patients collecting swabs in a clinic, and healthcare workers collecting swabs. The goal is to determine if all three methods provide the same results. We are looking for volunteers who are at high risk for anal cancer and meet the screening criteria for anal dysplasia.
