2022, Canadian Journal of CardiologyCitation Excerpt :The area under the hierarchical summary receiver operator characteristic curve was 0.83 (Fig. 3). The specificity of TTE for detection of RLS with colour flow Doppler in the absence of contrast use ranged from 0 to 35%.14,15,17,19,24,27,34 A total of 27 studies were published in the year 2000 or after (Fig. 4A).7,19-44
