Table 4 Comparison of CMOST with other microsimulation tools. Screening colonoscopies were performed at 10-year intervals between ages 50 and 75 years. Results of the microsimulation tools MISCAN, CRC-SPIN, and SimCRC were taken from reference [7]. Numbers indicate percentage reduction or the number of additional colonoscopies or CRC cases as indicated per 1000 individuals. For CMOST, the numbers of the baseline scenario assuming a dwell time of 13 years (CMOST13) are given; numbers in parenthesis indicate results obtained by using CMOST8 and CMOST19
