Schiller Test (Human Reproduction)

Application of a solution of iodine to the cervix. The iodine is taken up by the glycogen in normal vaginal epithelium, giving it a brown color. Areas lacking in glycogen are white or whitish-yellow, as in leukoplakia or cancer. Although non-staining areas are not diagnostic of cancer, they aid in choosing the spot to which a biopsy should be directed.
