The enthusiasm of experts in the first round and second round consultations was 100.0% and 90.5%; the consistency of experts was 4.03-4.75 and 4.39-4.93; the coordination of experts was 0.09-0.22 and 0.03-0.12, respectively. The Kendall coordination coefficients were 0.154 and 0.390 respectively ( P<0.001), indicating that there was significant consistency in expert opinions and the results of the letter inquiry were highly reliable. The final version of the KAP questionnaire included 28 items in three dimensions: knowledge, attitude, and behavior. Among them, knowledge items K1-K9 included the determination of risk population, risk factors, screening methods, screening intervals, and other contents; attitude items A1-A12 included attitudes towards factors of patients, doctors and government that affect screening, and attitudes towards the necessity of screening; behavior items P1-P7 included active screening behaviors such as patient assessment and advices for active screening.
