Reviewer 2 Report
This is an interesting article , which considers how to safely tune down screening intensity.
The authors link screening intensity to the number of scans, but do not address even less intensive regimens, including abdominal ultrasonography.
The recently published PRODIGE 3 study shows that regular CT-scans do not outperform abdominal ultransonography with regard to outcome.
The authors should discuss the value of abdominal US (Chest X-ray) as opposed to CT-scans.
