  <dc:title>Statistical Tools for Evaluation of in Vitro Diagnostic Reagents</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package ivdtools version 0.2.5</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Provides statistical workflows used in the evaluation of in vitro
    diagnostic reagents. Facilities include method comparison, commutability
    assessment, Bland-Altman and receiver operating characteristic analysis,
    qualitative agreement, C5 and C95 estimation, precision and
    variance-component analysis, linearity, interference, dilution and
    spiking studies, high-dose hook assessment, measurement uncertainty,
    reference-material bias, reference intervals, stability studies,
    quality-control charts, curve fitting, analytical sensitivity, outlier and
    normality assessment, and sample-size calculations. For methodological
    details, see Bland and Altman (1986) &lt;doi:10.1016/S0140-6736(86)90837-8&gt;,
