Table 4. Predictability of the EGFR mutation status by the combinations of well-established clinical factors with or without SUVmax.
EGFR mutation status | Sensitivity | Specificity | PPV | NPV | Accuracy | |||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Clinical predictors | Positive | Negative | ||||||
Female & Non-smoker * | Yes | 182 | 115 | 54% | 71% | 61% | 65% | 64% |
No | 152 | 285 | ||||||
Non-smoker & SUVmax ≤ 2.69 | Yes | 131 | 83 | 39% | 79% | 61% | 61% | 61% |
No | 203 | 317 | ||||||
Female & Non-smoker | Yes | 110 | 66 | 33% | 84% | 63% | 60% | 60% |
& SUVmax ≤ 2.69 | No | 224 | 334 |
* means pack-years ≤ 5.
PPV = positive predictive value; NPV = negative predictive value.
