Figure 9. Summary receiver operator curve plot of sensitivity versus specificity for performance of different
tests versus coronary angiography: Direct comparison MPS versus DSE. Each symbol represents a study, with
the height and width of each symbol being proportional to the inverse standard error of the sensitivity and
specificity respectively. The lines connecting paired MPS and DSE studies denote studies which investigated
the accuracy of MPS and DSE in the same study population (direct comparison)DSE: dobutamine stress
echocardiography; MPS: myocardial perfusion scintigraphy
