Related to the workload of US: number of US examinations/year, amount of US equipment available; state of available technology; types of most frequent examinations; organisation of the US laboratory; presence of sonographers; methods of reporting and archiving US examinations.
Some of the investigations are controversial and in the presence of multiple methods of investigating one aspect, the cost, safety, convenience and evidence-base should help in deciding on the appropriate method.

Overall for measures of precision, the learning techniques generally perform equally, but there are trends that suggest SVM techniques are more robust to the presence of noisy methods (features) than ANN and GLM techniques when adding other features.
However, the present study is focused on the application of the Rasch model to lifetime presence of specific methods of DSH (scored 0,1).
The presence of backup methods (e.g. fluoroscopic or endoscopic insertion) is thus important, although not always available.
The presence of molecular methods (including PCR) or the knowledge of ribotype 027 being detected in the HD was not associated with the CDI incidence.
Only 13 of the 122 no-injury head impact cases met the criteria for further quantitative analysis and reconstruction, which required minimal parallax error in the impact video and presence of scaling methods, and reconstruction.
The model is therefore applicable to the wide range of response formats (e.g., yes/no for presence of specific methods, rating scales for frequency and recency) included in DSH behavioral scales (see [ 17]).
