Estimating sensitivity and specificity of diagnostic tests using latent class models that account for conditional dependence between tests: a simulation study

BACKGROUND: Latent class models are increasingly used to estimate the sensitivity and specificity of diagnostic tests in the absence of a gold standard, and are commonly fitted using Bayesian methods. These models allow us to account for ‘conditional dependence’ between two or more diagnostic tests,...
