WHO officials say four out of five of those women live in poor countries, like in the West African nation of Burkina Faso.
Doctors there are using a simple low-cost method to test for cervical cancer. They say the test can save thousands of lives every year.
Yacouba Ouedraogo directs the cervical cancer prevention program at a health clinic in the capital, Ouagadougou. He says cervical cancer has become the most common cancer among women in Burkina Faso, but he says finding and treating the cancer in its early stages has recently become much easier.
Doctors there are using a small piece of cotton covered with distilled white vinegar, the vinegar can be bought at almost any market in Africa. The doctors rub the cotton swab on the opening of a woman's uterus.Once the liquid touches the organ, any pre-cancerous or cancerous cells will turn white.
Dr. Stanislas Paul Nebie has been using the vinegar test on his patients since 2010. He says it is very simple and unlike other tests, which can be costly and require sending cell samples to a laboratory. With the vinegar test, he says, any problems can be seen immediately and treated during the same visit.世界卫生组织称，每年全球有25万妇女死于宫颈癌。该组织官员表示，这些妇女中有80%生活在贫困国家，如西非的布基纳法索。
当地的医生正使用一种低成本的简易方法检测宫颈癌，称该方法每年可以拯救数千人的性命。
雅库巴•韦德拉奥果（Yacouba Ouedraogo）在首都瓦加杜古的一个医疗诊所主持宫颈癌预防项目。他说宫颈癌已经成为布基纳法索妇女中最常见的一种癌症。但他表示，近来该病症早期的确诊和治疗工作已经变得更加简单。
当地医生使用浸满了一种在非洲很常见的白醋的棉花团擦拭妇女的子宫口，一旦白醋接触该器官，任何癌前或癌变细胞都会变成白色。
斯坦尼斯拉斯•保罗•内比埃(Stanislas Paul Nebie)医生自2010年起就开始用白醋检测法测试他的病人。他说这种方法十分简易，并且不像其他方法一样价格高昂，也不需要将细胞样本送至实验室检测。他还说，有了白醋检测法，任何问题都可以在一次问诊中被诊断和治疗。
