  • Evaluating Prostasin alone, the criterion for a positive test of Prostasin greater than 15 μg/ml had FPR=.

  • When the prevalence is small, as with cancer screening, a small absolute change in FPR, but not TPR, can have a large impact on the PVP.

  • For mammography the more restricted FPR is estimated by the fraction of women screened by mammography who received a biopsy in which no cancer was detected.

  • If a positive biomarker is unlikely to trigger additional diagnostic work-ups prior to biopsy, a higher FPR might be acceptable.

  • Much larger odds ratio are needed from early detection tests for useful application in the screening setting [ 13 ] . For example, for the target values of FPR = .01 and TPR = .80, the odds ratio equals (TPR × (1-FPR)/ ((1-TPR) × FPR) = 396, as in Table 1.
