By assuming that calcification and masses are independent events and by applying the 90% specificity to the 90% sensitivity criteria for triaging, we will have that around 19% (1 − 0.9 ∗0.9) of the subjects will be in a high priority review group, and around 20% (0.4 ∗0.5) of the subjects will be in the low priority review group.
