## Background: Determining the false-negative rate (fnr) of cervicovaginal smear interpretation is a necessary step for any quality assessment and improvement program. all tests estimate the fnr, but the accuracy of these estimates varies from test to test. two methods for determining the fnr have
BCR-ABL fluorescence in situ hybridization has a useful role to play in experimental and clinical investigations of chronic myeloid leukaemia. However, the interpretation of results is complicated by variability in the false positive rate (FPR) and false negative rate (FNR). We therefore examined th
