A reason why cost-related aspects were not as meaningful may be the relatively low cost of the screening technologies and, for selected disorders, the high perceived effects from screening of newborns [ 42].

For selected common knee disorders, such as osteoarthritis, ACL tear, meniscal injury, and patellofemoral syndrome, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, positive and negative likelihood ratios were calculated in order to determine diagnostic validity.
APP diagnostic validity compared to the diagnosis of the orthopaedic surgeons for selected common knee disorders (osteoarthritis, ACL rupture, meniscal injury and PFS) was very high as all sensitivity and specificity scores were over 0.90, except for the PFS diagnostic sensitivity, which was 0.86.
