    Sensitivity of Diagnostic Test

    The probability that a test will produce a true postive result when used on effected subjects as compared to a reference or "gold standard". The sensitivity of a test can be determined by calculating: number of true positive results divided by the sum of true positive results plus number of false negative results. (NCI Thesaurus)
