Invited Commentary: Why use methods that require proportional hazards?

We recently questioned the utility of testing for proportional hazards in survival analysis. Here we expand on why the proportional hazards assumption is both implausible and unnecessary in most medical studies, particularly in randomized trials. We conclude that using survival analysis methods that do not rely on proportional hazards is typically the preferred course of action.

January 2025
From the Department of Radiology, University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health, 600 Highland Ave, E3/311 Clinical Science Center, Madison, WI 53792-3252; and the American College of Radiology (ACR) Institute for Radiologic Pathology, Silver Spring, Md.
Chronic diffuse liver disease continues to increase in prevalence and represents a global health concern. Noninvasive detection and quantification of hepatic steatosis, iron overload, and fibrosis are critical, especially given the many relative disadvantages and potential risks of invasive liver biopsy. Although MRI techniques have emerged as the preferred reference standard for quantification of liver fat, iron, and fibrosis, CT can play an important role in opportunistic detection of unsuspected disease and is performed at much higher volumes.
