Bayesian latent class models to estimate diagnostic test accuracies of COVID‐19 tests

Hartnack, Sonja; Eusebi, Paolo; Kostoulas, Polychronis (2021). Bayesian latent class models to estimate diagnostic test accuracies of COVID‐19 tests. Journal of Medical Virology, 93(2):639-640.

Abstract

With great interest we read the article from Dramé et al. 1 “Should RT‐PC be considered as gold standard in the diagnosis of Covid‐19” questioning the conclusions from Cassaniti et al.2. We agree with the argument that considering RT‐PCR as gold standard when evaluating a new test will inevitably lead to biased test accuracy estimates of the new test1.
