Zusammenfassung
|
"This is a book about diagnostic testing. It is aimed primarily at clinicians, particularly those who are academically minded, but it should be helpful and accessible to anyone involved with selection, development, or marketing of diagnostic, screening, or prognostic tests. Although we admit to a love of mathematics, we have restrained ourselves and kept the math to a minimum - a little simple algebra and only three Greek letters, κ (kappa), α (alpha), and β (beta). Nonetheless, quantitative discussions in this book go deeper and are more rigorous than those typically found in introductory clinical epidemiology or evidence-based medicine texts"-- Provided by publisher
