Use of signal detection theory in examining the results of a contrast examination: a case study using the lymphangiogram.
The receiver operating characteristic curve is an unbiased technique useful for quantitating the extent to which varying modalities differ in their ability to identify pathological processes. It was applied specifically to a radiographic contrast examination--the evaluation of the lymphangiogram in patients with Hodgkin's disease.
