Abstract

An inadequate biomarker validation can affect many patients' diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up. Therefore, special interest should be placed on performing these analyses correctly so that biomarkers can be applicable to patients and evidence of their clinical usefulness can be generated. A methodological work on the concept of biomarkers is presented, as well as the difficulties associated with the methodological approach to their development, validation, and implementation in clinical practice.
