- Tessa Davis’ post “Screening tests and statistics – We’re only doctors, what do we know?” on the Don’t Forget The Bubbles blog.
- Brent Thoma’s post “Diagnostic Statistics for Medical Students” on Boring EM.
- BMJ Statistics Notes: Diagnostic tests 1: sensitivity and specificity. An oldie, but it’s short and sweet.
- BMJ Statistics Notes: Diagnostic tests 2: predictive values. Again, a bit old but still helpful.
- If you like watching videos, then check out Jennifer Le-Rademacher’s (Division of Biostatistics at the Medical College of Wisconsin) presentation on Statistics, Probability and Diagnostic Medicine. You’ll need to be ready to concentrate though to keep track of the terminology.
