Use of screening tests to assess cancer risk and to estimate the risk of adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma.

T Yanagawa1, S Tokudome.   

Abstract

We developed methods to assess the cancer risks by screening tests. These methods estimate the size of the high risk group adjusted for the characteristics of screening tests and estimate the incidence rates of cancer among the high risk group adjusted for the characteristics of the tests. A method was also developed for selecting the cut-off point of a screening test. Finally, the methods were applied to estimate the risk of the adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma.
