There is insufficient evidence to recommend routine screening for [disease/malignancy].

OR

According to the [guideline name], screening for [disease name] is not recommended.

OR

According to the [guideline name], screening for [disease name] by [test 1] is recommended every [duration] among patients with [condition 1], [condition 2], and [condition 3].

  • The US Preventive Services Task Force(USPSTF) recommends against screening for ovarian cancer in asymptomatic women[1][2]
