pap smear is for any abnormal growth, usually used for cervix, while ultrasound detects any large mass or growth.... fibroids can be picked on ultrasound but if the cervical tumor is yet in initial stages it can be detected on pap smear and not ultrasound... pap smear identifies abnormal cells that are typical of a tumor
