Visit to the Mother and Child Institute in Chișinău
The Mother and Child Institute in Chișinău stands as a remarkable example of excellence and innovation in women’s healthcare. A recent visit to the institution revealed a dedicated team implementing a national digital cervical cancer screening project — an essential initiative for early detection of pre-invasive lesions and the development of a national screening registry, a vital tool for monitoring and reducing disease incidence in the Republic of Moldova.
The institute’s modern diagnostic and treatment program for pre-invasive cervical lesions reflects its commitment to prevention and effective cancer management. The integration of digital technologies facilitates closer collaboration among medical teams, ensuring better case coordination and faster access to specialized care. This digitalized approach strengthens the national healthcare system and improves clinical outcomes at a population level.
Additionally, participation in the conference organized by the Moldovan Society of Colposcopy provided an academic platform for discussions on minimally invasive cervical cancer treatment, HPV pathogenesis, and glandular cervical lesions. The presentations highlighted recent scientific progress and the ongoing need to update clinical protocols to ensure the most effective therapeutic approaches for patients.
This academic and professional collaboration between the Mother and Child Institute and the Moldovan Society of Colposcopy demonstrates the importance of integrated, multidisciplinary strategies in combating cervical cancer. Initiatives such as digital screening and educational programs significantly contribute to lowering disease incidence and improving women’s quality of life — a model worthy of replication in public health systems.
