INTRODUCTION
Conventional economic evaluation typically involves piecewise comparisons of competing
technologies at a single isolated point in a broader care pathway. This study assesses the value of
simulating whole disease and treatment pathways to provide a common economic basis for
informing resource allocation decisions across an entire disease service. This "Whole Disease
Modelling" approach was applied to the evaluation of technologies for the detection, diagnosis,
treatment and follow-up of colorectal cancer with the intention of informing NICE’s colorectal
cancer clinical guideline
