In the US screening trial, lung cancer was diagnosed in 0.7 % of screenings [ 2], in the Danish screening trial the incidence was 0.8 % [ 3].
2 3 Over-diagnosis can be estimated in a randomised screening trial when a sufficiently long period has elapsed from the cessation of screening that is, when all cancers should have become clinically apparent in both trial arms.
