Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) to Determine Cut-Off Points of Biomarkers in Lung Cancer Patients
The role of biomarkers in disease prognosis continues to be an important investigation in many cancer studies. In order for these biomarkers to have practical application in clinical decision making regarding patient treatment and follow-up, it is common to dichotomize patients into those with low vs. high expression levels. In this study, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, area un...
متن کاملReceiver Operating Characteristic ( ROC ) Curves
Assessment of predictive accuracy is a critical aspect of evaluating and comparing models, algorithms or technologies that produce the predictions. In the field of medical diagnosis, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves have become the standard tool for this purpose and its use is becoming increasingly common in other fields such as finance, atmospheric science and machine learning. T...
متن کاملUnderstanding receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves.
In this issue of the Journal, Auer and colleagues conclude that serum levels of neuron-specific enolase (NSE), a biochemical marker of ischemic brain injury, may have clinical utility for the prediction of survival to hospital discharge in patients experiencing the return of spontaneous circulation following at least 5 minutes of cardiopulmonary resuscitation. The authors used a receiver operat...
متن کاملA Concise Introduction to Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) Curve
ROC curve analysis is used widely in medicine as a method for evaluating the performance of diagnostic tests (3,5,6,10), but has been used recently in many agricultural applications (2,4,5,11,12). The ROC curve provides information regarding how often a test’s predictions are correct, and provides a graphical method for evaluating and discriminating between different diagnostic tests or modific...
متن کاملUsing Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) Curves to Evaluate Digital Mammography
Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves are frequently used to compare the accuracy of two or more imaging modalities. This paper addresses the use of ROC analysis to evaluate the speed and accuracy of digital mammography, as compared to conventional film-screen mammography.
