“…In these studies, the limited screening strategy generally includes a thorough history and physical examination, blood work (complete blood count and differential blood count, electrolytes, creatinine, liver function tests, and lactate dehydrogenase), a chest X‐ray, and age‐specific and gender‐specific cancer screening, whereas an extensive screening strategy also includes one or more of computed tomography (CT) of the abdomen, pelvis, and thorax, ultrasound of the abdomen and pelvis, endoscopy, mammography and/or serum tumor markers, and, more recently, positron emission tomography–CT. Although all studies showed that a more extensive screening strategy did not detect more occult cancer than a more limited strategy, two studies suggested that an extensive screening strategy might detect earlier‐stage tumors and be associated with a lower number of newly diagnosed cancers (or fewer occult cancers being missed) during follow‐up . Nonetheless, it remains unclear whether these findings translate into an improvement in patient‐important outcomes, including a decrease in morbidity or an increase in survival, in this patient population.…”
