Description

Fits the hierarchical summary receiver operating characteristic (HSROC) model of Rutter and Gatsonis (2001) <doi:10.1002/sim.942>, the bivariate binomial-normal model of Reitsma et al. (2005) <doi:10.1016/j.jclinepi.2005.02.022>, the threshold-based bivariate time-to-event model of Hoyer et al. (2018) <doi:10.1002/jrsm.1273>, and the latent class extensions of Liu et al. (2015) <doi:10.1111/biom.12264> for diagnostic studies with an imperfect reference standard. Provides subgroup analyses, HSROC meta-regression, likelihood-ratio tests, summary ROC plots, and coupled forest plots.
