Aids to the Evaluation of Diagnostic Performance, as Applied to Immunological Creatine-Kinase MB Assay in Myocardial Infarction

Abstract: Summary: Immunoassay of creatine kinase-MB provides numerical information, which makes it possible to estimate quantitatively the diagnostic performance following myocardial infarction. Two graphical methods for such an evaluation are presented. The relationship between technical sensitivity and specificity was analyzed using a continuous function, the receiver-operator characteristic curve. Using this function, a diagnostic threshold ("upper normal limit") was chosen, which balances both technical specificity… Show more
