Cost-effectiveness ratios of screening strategies, varied by age and frequency from societal perspective
Table summary
This table displays the results of Cost-effectiveness ratios of screening strategies. The information is grouped by Screening strategy (appearing as row headers), Total cost (per 1,000 women), Total quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs) per 1,000 women, Incremental cost per QALY and Average cost per QALY relative to No Screening , calculated using $ units of measure (appearing as column headers).
