https://doi.org/10.14341/probl200955123-27

Abstract

Integrated clinical and economic analysis of the efficiency of screening was made in patients with adrenal incidentalomas under the established practical conditions; the average cost of screening of a patient with adrenal incidentalomas and the cost of one detected case were determined under these conditions. Based on the clinical and economic analysis, the authors have elaborated and scientifically substantiated an algorithm for screening of patients with adrenal incidentalomas, the use of which will permit, with high clinical efficacy, a significant reduction in the cost of screening.
