英文摘要：
We estimate treatment cost-savings from early cancer diagnosis. For breast, lung, prostate and colorectal cancers and melanoma, which account for more than 50% of new incidences projected in 2017, we combine published cancer treatment cost estimates by stage with incidence rates by stage at diagnosis. We extrapolate to other cancer sites by using estimated national expenditures and incidence rates. A rough estimate for the U.S. national annual treatment cost-savings from early cancer diagnosis is in 11 digits. Using this estimate and cost-neutrality, we also estimate a rough upper bound on the cost of a routine early cancer screening test.

中文摘要：
我们估计早期癌症诊断可节省治疗成本。对于乳腺癌、肺癌、前列腺癌、结直肠癌和黑色素瘤，占2017年预计新发病率的50%以上，我们将公布的癌症治疗成本估算（按阶段）与诊断时的发病率相结合。我们使用估计的国家支出和发病率推断其他癌症部位。美国国家癌症早期诊断每年节省的治疗费用粗略估计为11位数。利用这一估计和成本中性，我们还估计了常规早期癌症筛查测试成本的大致上限。
