An independent assessment of the 7 nomograms for predicting the probability of additional axillary nodal metastases after positive sentinel lymph node biopsy in a cohort of british patients with breast cancer.

CONCLUSION: The MOU nomogram was more predictive than the other nomograms, with a better AUC value and false-negative rate. None of the models were able to achieve AUC value ≥ 0.80 in a cohort of British patients with breast cancer.
