Table 6: Diagnostic Accuracy of Studies Directly and Indirectly Comparing Stress Echocardiography to SPECT.
Stress ECHO | SPECT | |||
---|---|---|---|---|
Indirect | Direct | Indirect | Direct | |
Pooled Sensitivity (95% C.I.) | 0.80 (0.77 – 0.82) | 0.78 (0.72 – 0.84) | 0.86 (0.84 – 0.89) | 0.89 (0.85 – 0.93) |
Pooled Specificity (95% C.I.) | 0.84 (0.82 – 0.87) | 0.88 (0.83 – 0.94) | 0.71 (0.67 – 0.76) | 0.70 (0.59 – 0.80) |
SPECT, single photon emission computed tomography; stress ECHO, stress echocardiography
