Probability of True or False Positive Results with Serial Testing of True Positive or True Negative Specimens. (A) The probability of one or more tests positive for norovirus as a function of number of truly positive specimens tested, based on estimated test sensitivity by latent class modeling (LCM) or composite reference standard (CRS) methods. (B) The probability of a false positive test for norovirus as a function of number of truly negative specimens tested. PCR, real-time reverse-transcriptase polymerase-chain reaction; EIA, enzyme immunoassay; EM, electron microscopy.
