Preferred term

decision curve analysis  

Definition(s)

  • Decision curve analysis is a straightforward technique for evaluating diagnostic tests, prediction models, and molecular markers. Unlike traditional biostatistical techniques, it can provide information as to a test's clinical value, but unlike traditional decision analytic techniques, it does not require patient preferences or formal estimation of the health value of various health outcomes: Only a general clinical estimate is required.
