Table 2. Sensitivity (Sn), Specificity (Sp), Positive Predictive Value (PPV) and Negative Predictive Value (NPV) in the assessment of high grade dysplasia vs. no dysplasia with white-light endoscopy and optical magnification (WLE-z), narrow-band imaging and optical magnification (NBI-z) and a combination of both (95 % confidence interval).

Sn, % Sp, % PPV, % NPV, %
WLE-z 48.4 (45.3 – 50.6) 92.2 (90.5 – 93.4) 45.6 (42.3 – 47.6) 93.5 (91.6 – 94.3)
NBI-z 89.1 (87.3 – 90.6) 89.3 (87.3 – 90.6) 56.5 (53.4 – 58.6) 98.3 (97.2 – 98.7)
Combination 93.4 (91.6 – 94.3) 90.3 (88.4 – 91.5) 61.7 (58.4 – 63.5) 99.2 (98.4 – 99.5)
