Suppose that 50,000 women who have never had a breast cancer diagnosis and are symptom free are available and willing to participate in a new screening program of computerized digital mammography. Of the women, 1,132 had a positive screening test and all of those women had a breast biopsy. Of these biopsies, only 136 were diagnosed as definitively breast cancer. Of the 48,868 who screened “negative” on the screening test, 24 were actually in the early stages of breast cancer. This was determined by following these women and observing who was diagnosed with clinical breast cancer after the screening test. What is the prevalence per 100,000 of the detectable preclinical phase of “presymptomatic” breast cancer in this population?
