What kind of variations in the use of screening are there across countries?

Authors: Pseudo218 Pseudo218, Pseudo73 Pseudo73

Internal reviewers: Paolo Giorgi Rossi, Lotte Groth Jensen

Population-based screening programmes may be implemented nationwide or regionally. The AAA screening described in the literature is either hospital based screening or general practice based screening, for which different attendance rates are described. No statements about the quality of the screening programme (patient information, safety, characteristics of the screening instrument and the preventive intervention   strategy) could be identified in the literature on the types of screening.
