Paying for Diagnostic Accuracy
Health Care Management Review, 1976One of the difficult problems facing managers is how to evaluate the benefits to be gained from introducing a new diagnostic test that may be more accurate--but also more expensive. What analyses can be applied to help the hospital make the choice to switch or not?

Neuropathological diagnostic accuracy
British Journal of Neurosurgery, 2002This study investigated variations in neuropathological diagnosis when histopathological slides are evaluated with access to all information pertinent to a case, compared with evaluation of H & E stained slides with only limited clinical information.

Medical Informatics, 1993
This paper explores the limits to computer-aided medical diagnosis. A specific application area (the diagnosis of abdominal pain of suspected gynaecological origin) is chosen, and the factors limiting the accuracy of computer programs are investigated by means of a simulation model which has been shown previously to generate realistic cases.

Seminars in Nuclear Medicine, 2019
The medical community often assumes that the tests we use to diagnose various diseases are accurate, safe, and effective. However, the study designs traditionally used to determine whether such a diagnostic test is indeed accurate, safe, and effective are often at a higher risk of bias and are of lower methodological quality than those evaluating ...

Diagnostic accuracy of dermoscopy
The Lancet Oncology, 2002The accuracy of the dinical diagnosis of cutaneous melanoma with the unaided eye is only about 60%. Dermoscopy, a non-invasive, in vivo technique for the microscopic examination of pigmented skin lesions, has the potential to improve the diagnostic accuracy.

Diagnostic Accuracy of Xeromammography
Tumori Journal, 1981The analytical study of the case material has allowed a precise evaluation of the distribution by age groups of the different pathologic processes of the breast, of the localization and dimensions of malignant tumors, as well as the diagnostic accuracy for those cases histologically ascertained and those with a follow-up.

Diagnostic accuracy of CE Chirp
International Journal of Pediatric Otorhinolaryngology, 2020There has been an increase in the use of the CE-Chirp stimulus in automated auditory brainstem response (AABR) equipment for neonatal hearing screening. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the LS CE-Chirp-evoked auditory brainstem response (ABR) compared to the click-evoked ABR for the identification of different degrees

Enhancing and Evaluating Diagnostic Accuracy
Medical Decision Making, 1991Techniques that may enhance diagnostic accuracy in clinical settings were tested in the context of mammography. Statistical information about the relevant features among those visible in a mammogram and about their relative importances in the diagnosis of breast cancer was the basis of two decision aids for radiologists: a checklist that guides the ra ...

Diagnostic accuracy in cytopathology
Diagnostic Cytopathology, 1994Cytopathologic diagnoses play an important role in clinical decision making. As a result, the tests that produce material for cytopathologic interpretation must be evaluated critically and carefully. One way to evaluate these tests is by the assessment of diagnostic accuracy.
