Diagnostic windows in non-neoplastic diseases: a systematic review
CONCLUSION: Evidence of changing healthcare use before diagnosis exists for many non-neoplastic conditions, establishing that early diagnosis is possible, in principle. In particular, some conditions may be detectable many years earlier than they are currently diagnosed. Further research is required to accurately estimate diagnostic windows and to determine how much earlier diagnosis may be possible, and how this might be achieved.PMID:37308303 | DOI:10.3399/BJGP.2023.0044
