Description
Summary:Background The 2009 Appropriate Use Criteria (AUC) for Cardiac Radionuclide Imaging is used to identify nuclear stress tests of limited clinical value. Table Panel A, sensitivity and specificity for determining inappropriate tests (*, concordant attending determination of inappropriate tests is considered the gold standard); Panel B, inter-relater reliability between different raters (as un-weighted kappa)
