Patients with a biopsy diagnosis of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) may receive a different treatment than patients with invasive carcinoma. Yet, on several occasions, the DCIS diagnosis is underestimated whereas the patient actually has an invasive tumor. To guide clinical decision making regarding treatment options for potential underestimated DCIS, Meurs et al. developed a clinical prediction model. Meurs et al. used the Evidencio platform to create an online calculator which they published simultaneous with the publication of their paper in the prestigious British Journal of Cancer.
