Global Applicability of a Risk Prediction Tool for Sentinel Node Positivity in Patients With Primary Cutaneous Melanoma
This study found that the MIA SN-positivity calculator performed best with all 6 parameters and has been significantly improved (version 2), with the same risk point estimates but much tighter 95% CIs. These results demonstrated that the calculator was robust, precise, and applicable to geographically widespread melanoma populations.
