MCDA value estimate of liquid based cytology for cervical cancer screening based on weights and scores assigned by committee members. Weights were normalized across the 14 criteria and scores are presented on a scale of 0 to 1. *MCDA estimate was obtained using a linear model combining normalized weights and scores for each decision criteria. For an intervention to achieve close to 1 on this scale, it would have to cure an endemic disease, demonstrate major improvement in safety, efficacy, and patient reported outcomes compared to limited existing approaches and result in major healthcare savings.
