Hello everyone,
I'm looking for help understanding the sensitivity and specificity of serum lipase for pancreatitis. I'm not sure what these terms mean in relation to the diagnosis of pancreatitis and I'm hoping someone here can explain the concept to me in layman's terms. I've done some research on the topic, but I'm still not sure I understand what the serum lipase sensitivity and specificity are. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
