Assessment of the Accuracy of AortaScan for Detection of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA)
Evidence Ranking

Abstract
Conclusion
A device to detect AAA without the need for a trained operator would have potential in a community-based screening programme. The AortaScan, however, lacks adequate sensitivity and significant technical improvement is necessary before it could be considered a replacement for trained screening personnel (Figs 1 and 4, Table 2).
