Cervicography is a diagnostic medical procedure in which a non-physician takes pictures of the cervix and submits it to a physician for interpretation. Other related procedures are speculoscopy and colposcopy. The procedure is considered a screening test for cervical cancer and is complimentary to pap smear.

Unlike colposcopy, cervicography and speculoscopy do not have a CPT/HCPCS code for it and typically are not covered by most medical insurance companies.
