A system for mechanical thrombectomy treating ischemic stroke demonstrated a high level of sensitivity and specificity compared with human evaluation in a recent clinical trial, according to the ...

Estimation of sensitivity and specificity for diagnostic or screening tests usually requires independent confirmation of subjects as diseased or nondiseased using a gold standard. In practice, however ...

The coprimary outcomes were sensitivity for colorectal cancer and specificity for advanced neoplasia (colorectal cancer or advanced precancerous lesions) relative to screening colonoscopy.

Conclusions The next-generation multitarget stool DNA test showed higher sensitivity for colorectal cancer and advanced precancerous lesions than FIT but also showed lower specificity.
