Comparison of a Clinic-Based ELISA Test Kit with the Immunofluorescence Antibody Test for Assaying Leishmania infantum Antibodies in Dogs

Figure 1

ROC curve for the immunochromatographic assay for detection of anti-Leishmania IgG antibodies. -axis shows the false positive rate (specificity), and the -axis shows the true positive rate (sensitivity). A test with the perfect discrimination has a ROC curve that passes through the upper left corner. The area under the curve (AUC) is ( ). The ROC analysis shows that the cutoff point for the test with the best sensitivity/specificity is >0 (Se: 92.1%; Sp: 97.14% expressed as percentages).
