Message definition (Medical test)
==Interpretation==
{{Further|Pre- and post-test probability}}
In the finding of a ''[[pathognomonic]]'' sign or symptom it is almost certain that the target condition is present, and in the absence of finding a ''[[sine qua non]]'' sign or symptom it is almost certain that the target condition is absent. In reality, however, the subjective probability of the presence of a condition is never exactly 100% or 0%, so tests are rather aimed at estimating a [[post-test probability]] of a condition or other entity.

Interpretation

Main article: Pre- and post-test probability

In the finding of a pathognomonic sign or symptom it is almost certain that the target condition is present, and in the absence of finding a sine qua non sign or symptom it is almost certain that the target condition is absent. In reality, however, the subjective probability of the presence of a condition is never exactly 100% or 0%, so tests are rather aimed at estimating a post-test probability of a condition or other entity.
