Likelihood ratios (LR) for detection of emphysema from pulmonary function tests. The positive (+) and negative (−) likelihood ratios for detection of emphysema as assessed by individual PFTs are shown where a LR+ of >10, or LR− of <0.1 represent conclusive increase in the likelihood of the presence, or absence of emphysema respectively.
