380 chapter 6 Figure 4. Univariate sensitivity analysis This tornado plot shows the results of the univariate sensitivity analysis on the lifelong incremental net monetary benefit per patient (x-axis) of [18F]FDG-PET/CT-driven management as compared to diagnostic surgery, for a willingness to pay of €50,000 per QALY. Dark grey bars represent lower parameter values and light grey bars represent higher parameter values. The vertical line at €0 represents the break-even situation, i.e., when both strategies have equal net benefit. The vertical line at €30,000 represents the incremental net benefit of the base case analysis for a willingness to pay of €50,000 per QALY. HT, hemithyroidectomy. QALY, quality-adjusted life year.
