Probability revision.
This article examines the principles of probability revision and four different ways of obtaining post-test probabilities: the hypothetical cohort method, likelihood ratios and odds, the Nomogram, and precalculation. The authors then show where pre-test probabilities can be obtained, and then how to interpret multiple tests.
