摘要
A calculation is made of the cost for an ultrasound screening programme for abdominal aortic aneurysm. From this is derived the cost of a QALY (Quality Adjusted Life Year) for different ages and sex. The cost of a QALY in this programme compares well with other types of screening programme. It is found that a screening programme should include both men and women. © 1990 The Royal College of Radiologists, 38 Portland Place, London W1N 3DG, UK. All rights reserved.
