- Modeling in Medical Decision Making : A Bayesian Approach, Hardcover by Parmigiani, Giovanni, ISBN 0471986089, ISBN-13 9780471986089, Brand New, Free shipping in the US
Due to the sheer volume and complexity of information bearing on healthcare decisions, quantitative modeling is assuming a more central role in evidence-based medicine. For practitioners and students, Parmigiani (Johns Hopkins U.) aims to "help bridge the gap between simulation-based Bayesian statistical methods and their use in medical decision making." He surveys inferential methods relevant to diagnosis, genetic counseling, future patient forecasting, expected utility theory, and simulations using Monte Carlo methods. The second part features case studies applying meta-analysis, decision trees, and chronic disease modeling to such areas as breast cancer screening (the author's dissertation focus). Annotation c.
