Understanding the properties of diagnostic tests – Part 2: Likelihood ratios

Perspectives in Clinical Research, 2018
Diagnostic tests are used to identify subjects with and without disease. In a previous article in this series, we examined some attributes of diagnostic tests – sensitivity, specificity, and predictive values.
