Developing novel nuclear cardiology approaches requires evaluating their diagnostic ability. Statistical measures such as sensitivity, specificity, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and area under the curve (AUC) are useful to evaluate the diagnostic value of novel imaging parameters. This paper reviews key statistical methods used in the evaluation of diagnostic tests and highligh...

the presence of three root canals in the distal root of the mandibular fi rst permanent molars is rare; based on in vitro studies its incidence is reported to be between 0.2% and 3%. with the advent of cone beam computed tomography (cbct) as an adjunctive diagnostic aid, the determination of root canal anatomy in teeth with extra canals and complex canal confi gurations has become more precise....
