Table 2.

Comparison of diagnostic efficacy of three diagnostic methods.

Methods AUC Sensitivity (%) Specificity (%) Accuracy(%) PPV (%) NPV(%)
C-TIRADS 0.785* 68.5 88.5 78.3 86.0 73.0
SWE 0.775** 68.5 86.5 77.4 84.1 72.6
C-TIRADS+SWE 0.870 83.3# 84.6## 84.0 84.9 83.0

* indicates the AUC of C-TIRADS compared with that of SWE, z = 0.18, P > 0.05, the AUC of C-TIRADS compared with that of C-TIRADS + SWE, z = 2.76, P < 0.05; ** indicates the AUC of SWE compared with that of C-TIRADS + SWE, z = 2.25, P < 0.05; # indicates that the comparison of sensitivity values among the three diagnostic methods had statistical significance (P < 0.05); ## indicates that the comparison of specificity values among the three diagnostic methods had no statistical significance (P > 0.05).
