内容説明
Introductory Medical Statistics, now in its third edition, is an introductory textbook on basic statistical techniques. It is written for physicians, surgeons, radiation oncologists, medical physicists, radiographers, hospital administrators, medical statisticians in training, biochemists, and other professionals allied to medicine. It is suitable as a teaching text for clinicians working towards their professional examinations. It is also suitable for Maters degree courses in medical physics.
The third edition has been extensively revised and expanded to include:
Clinical trial design and analysis]
Multivariate analysis
Cox proportional hazards model
McNemar, Wicoxon, Mann-Whitney, Kruskal-Wallis, Mantel-Haenszel, and Kappa tests
Kaplan-Meier survival rates
Sensitivity and Specificity
Specification of treatment success, cure, and quality of life
Risk specification
Case-control and cohort epidemiological studies
Glossary of terms
The major change has been the advent of personal computing, so people rely on the power of their machine, and its software to number crunch. What is missing is that the software may not use the appropriate statistical error standard - Dick Mould
