Table 4. Comparison of the perineural spread (PNS) in the histopathological diagnosis with PNS on MRI.

PNS on MRI
(+) (−) Total
PNS in the histopathological diagnosis (+) 8 3 11
(−) 0 2 2
Total 8 5 13

(+), positive findings of PNS; (−), negative findings of PNS; PNS, perineural spread; Sensitivity: 73%, specificity: 100%, accuracy: 77%.

p = 0.12 (Fisher's exact probability test).
