The selection of patients for excretory urography. 1979

H Z Mellins, and B J McNeil, and H L Abrams, and F X Van Houten, and M A Murphy, and E Korngold

Symptoms, signs, and laboratory findings that indicated excretory urography in 1,622 patients, were compared with the radiographs. The chance that an indication would be associated with demonstrable disease was calculated. No "low-likelihood" indications could be identified. Elimination of the urograms obtained for any of the indications would not have been possible without simultaneously precluding detection of many diseased patients. The monetary cost of case-finding was low, and the efficacy of patient referral high.

D003362 Cost-Benefit Analysis A method of comparing the cost of a program with its expected benefits in dollars (or other currency). The benefit-to-cost ratio is a measure of total return expected per unit of money spent. This analysis generally excludes consideration of factors that are not measured ultimately in economic terms. In contrast a cost effectiveness in general compares cost with qualitative outcomes.
