Synthesis and Cluster Analysis for Multiple Screening Techn iques for Cervical Cancer

Objective Use the synthesis indices for diagnostic test and cluster analysis methods to analysis six screening techniques for pre invasive and invasive cancer of the uterine cervix. Methods The Efficiency,Youden index,Odds product,Kappa coefficient and information content were evaluated for each technique.Then a sample cluster analysis based on these five diagnostic test indices was done. Results The best diagnostic test are liquid based ThinPrep Pap and HPV direct test,the fluorescent spectroscopy is the l...
