Lead time v.s Length Time Bias

A

Lead Time Bias: earlier detection of disease increases disease prevalence and gives impression that prolongs life, although atual mortality is unchanged.

Length Time Bias: slow-growing / smoldering diseases are more likely to be picked up compared to fast-growing / diseases of rapid onset. For example: slow growing CRC is more likely to get picked up by a SCREENING colonoscopy compared to a fast growing CRC tumor that brings a patient in b/c of diarrhea / bleeding per rectum.
