Figure 6 ROC Curves for the Total Number of Calcified Lesions Compared With the Agatston Score
The receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve plots the sensitivity (y-axis) by 1 – specificity (or false positive rate, x-axis) for both the total number of lesions and the Agatston or coronary artery calcium score. These results reveal a similar ability to classify mortality risk for both the Agatston score and the number of calcified lesions.
