Abstract
Screening populations at risk for a disease, applying interventions to halt or reverse the progression to overt clinical syndrome, and preventing future morbidity and/or mortality in a cost-effective manner have been a subject for extensive research for several decades for many common health problems. In 1968, the World Health Organization commissioned a report on screening by Wilson and Jungner entitled Principles and practice of screening for disease which has since become a classic and widely accepted doctrine in the science of public health [1]. Wilson and Jungner attempted to define screening criteria to guide the selection of conditions that would be suitable for screening, based on the following, among other, principles: (1) The condition sought should be an important health problem.
