Invited comment on Alonzo, T.A. and Nakas, C.T. (2007). Comparison of ROC umbrella volumes with an application to the assessment of lung cancer diagnostic markers. Biometrical Journal 49 , 654–664. Issues remain as to the appropriateness of volumes as summary measures of accuracy when distinguishing between multiple disease classes and when comparing accuracy of tests.
