Voltaire:

Have you ever considered CYTC (CYTYC Corp.)? This one was recommended to me by my forensic pathologist son several months ago. I purchased a few shares and have watched it go up quite a bit recently.

CYTYC makes and markets "ThinPrep" a new and better way of screening for cancer. It is replacing the conventional Pap smear in many locations even though it is more expensive. I understand one of the reasons for this is that the method can be used to screen for common venereal diseases as well as cancer cells other than those shed from the uterus.
