Résumé

Positive and negative predictive values are useful to quantify the performance of medical tests, and both are often used simultaneously. Although there are several methods to test the equality of these predictive values between two medical tests, these approaches separately compare positive and negative predictive values. Therefore, we propose a testing procedure that combines the approximate likelihood ratio test defined by Tang
