Since preoperative lymph node staging with different imaging techniques like CT scan, MRI, PET scan, and endoluminal ultrasound is not sufficient to detect nodal micrometastases, there is a need for additional methods better predicting the probability of lymph node involvement.
To better predict the occurrence probabilities of large truck involved crashes and gain direction for policies and countermeasures aimed at reducing the crash frequencies, it is essential to examine truck involved crashes categorized by collision vehicle types, since passenger cars and large trucks differ in dimensions, size, weight, and operating characteristics.
A32 Threats, New and Old TERROR AND PROBABILITY -- Scientists are working to better predict the likelihood of major terrorist attacks and thus to clarify what protections the nation needs most.
The self reported social contact data derived from such surveys have been shown to better predict the observed patterns of respiratory infections than other representations of contact probabilities, such as homogenous or proportionate mixing [12], [14], [15], [16].
A better strategy could be to predict the probability of a plot to consist of certain species, which somewhat resembles fuzzy classification of species tested already by Packalén and Maltamo (2006) using remotely sensed data.
The purpose of nutritional screening is to predict the probability of a better or worse outcome due to nutritional factors and whether nutritional treatment is likely to influence this.
Tools available to predict fractures include FRAXTM, which can predict the probability of hip fractures within in the next decade.
