In 1986, a breast screening project was set up to assess the feasibility of mobile breast screening in rural areas near Edinburgh. Secondary objectives included a study of factors affecting uptake, ways in which uptake might be encouraged and a study of the acceptability of this form of screening. This paper deals with the results of studies dealing with secondary objectives. We found that response rates to opportunistic screening was poor, 5,631 attenders out of 23,229 eligible women (24.2%). This was especially so in older women. Distance proved to be the single most significant factor affecting uptake, but car and house ownership were also highly significantly correlated with response. Leaflet drops had no demonstrable effect on response, but personal invitation by general practitioners produced a 75% response rate in women 50-64 who had failed to attend on the van's previous visit. Attenders found this form of screening both convenient and acceptable.
1986年，设立了一项乳房筛查项目，以评估在爱丁堡附近农村地区开展流动乳房筛查的可行性。次要目标包括研究影响参与率的因素、鼓励参与的方式以及对这种筛查形式可接受性的研究。本文论述了有关次要目标研究的结果。我们发现，机会性筛查的响应率很低，23229名符合条件的女性中只有5631人参与（24.2%）。老年女性尤其如此。事实证明，距离是影响参与率的最显著单一因素，但拥有汽车和房屋也与响应率高度显著相关。发放传单对响应率没有明显影响，但全科医生亲自邀请使50 - 64岁、上次未能乘坐筛查车参与筛查的女性的响应率达到了75%。参与筛查者认为这种筛查形式既方便又可接受。
