From: Development and validation of a model for early diagnosis of biliary atresia
Decision tree (DT) for the prediction of biliary atresia (BA) using gamma glutamyl transpeptidase (γGT) concentration, triangular cord (TC) sign, and gallbladder findings in patients with neonatal cholestasis (NC). The DT included five variables and was implemented in the general R package rpart. The root node query was as follows: Was γGT > 184 in the patient? In the classification tree, “no” resulted in a branch to the right. A total of nine terminal nodes were generated for the DT model. Non-BA, non-biliary atresia
