Online Calculators for Sample Size Planning in ROC Studies

An implementation of sample size formulas for estimation of AUCs and their differences with precision and assurance, as proposed by Di Shu and Guangyong Zou in a manuscript entitled "Revisiting sample size planning for receiver operating characteristic studies: a confidence interval approach with precision and assurance".

For estimating an AUC

This calculator helps answer questions like this:
"Assuming AUC = 0.9, how many participants should be recruited to assure with 90% chance that the lower confidence limit of the AUC is above 0.8?"

For estimating AUC difference

This calculator helps answer questions like this:
"Assuming my improved test has an AUC of 0.9 while the standard test has an AUC of 0.7, how many participants should be recruited to assure with 90% chance that the lower confidence limit of AUC difference is above 0.1?"
