non-diagnostic for Hyper-Thryodism.

While TSH was expected to be the most important variable in building
random forest models, it was quite unexpected that the next three values
would be Hematology results. In the clinical laboratory, TSH and CBCs
are often run on different analyzers and often in completely different
departments. Finding this slight correlation could be valuable to
building further algorithms.
## Real World Applications
@ -49,6 +50,13 @@ informationally redundant testing [@luo2016]. However, since Free T4 and
all other tests used in this study are performed on automated
instruments, the cost savings to the lab and patient may be minimal.
As Rabbani et al. study showed, Machine Learning in the Clinical
Laboratory is an emerging field. However, few existing studies relate to
predicting laboratory values based on other results [-@rabbani2022]. The
few studies that do exist follow a similar premise. All are trying to
reduce redundant laboratory testing and thus lower the cost burden on
the patient.
