About the Episode

Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value… these terms sit on your result sheet but are rarely explained. This episode explains them in everyday language and shows with examples how the same test carries different meanings in different populations.

We also discuss why false positives and false negatives are unavoidable, and why results must be interpreted through physician evaluation.
