How does a provider determine the usefulness, appropriateness, of a screening
test?
The target population needs to be identifiable and accessible and the disease should
affect a sufficient number of people. The screening test should be sensitive enough to
detect most cases and be specific enough to limit the number of false positives.
Screening test should be relatively inexpensive, easy to administer, and have minimal
side effects. The validity of the screening test is the ability to accurately identify those
that have the disease.
