D. Screening is acceptable in terms of costs, harms, and patient acceptance.

A. Early detection improves outcome.

Explanation:

These screening tests are carried out in order to the medical condition of the people who are older than 50 years. These screening tests tells us about the disease in early stages. The disease can be cured if they are diagnosed in early stages so early detection of the disease plays important role in saving the life of the patient from that dangerous disease and the results are in favor of the patient. If these screening tests are not carried out earlier so the disease may cause serious damage which leads to death.
