Seldom in medicine does a test yield a diagnosis with absolute certainty. That’s why likelihood ratios are gaining prominence as the preferred means for interpreting individual test results in the context of disease prevalence or pretest probability.
“Likelihood” allows you to take the concepts of likelihood ratios and apply them in the clinic or at the bedside in real time.
Contains a small sample of tests and associated likelihood ratios that serve as example and inspiration to the creation of your own collection of LRs. Use confidence intervals if desired. Share LRs with colleagues or students. Keep notes, citations, and links to articles. Calculate and graph pre versus posttest probability. Derive likelihood ratios from sensitivity and specificity.
