Table 4. Diagnostic Performance of Cardiac CT in Comparison with 2D Echocardiography.
Diagnostic Performance* | Dataset A† | Dataset B | Dataset C | Dataset D |
---|---|---|---|---|
Sensitivity (%) | 64.3 | 57.1 | 21.4 | 42.9 |
Specificity (%) | 96.9 | 78.1 | 87.5 | 71.9 |
Positive predictive value (PPV) (%) | 90.0 | 53.3 | 42.9 | 40.0 |
Negative predictive value (NPV) (%) | 86.1 | 80.7 | 71.8 | 74.2 |
Accuracy (%) | 87.0 | 71.7 | 67.4 | 63.0 |
*Sensitivity of dataset A was higher than that of B, and specificity of A was higher than those of B and D (p < 0.05). PPV of dataset A was higher than that of D, and accuracy of dataset A is higher than those of C and D (p < 0.05). Otherwise, no significant difference was noted in diagnostic performances between 4 reconstruction parameters. p value by McNemar for sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy. p value by Fisher's exact test for PPV and NPV, †Images are reconstructed with slice thickness/increment of 0.9/0.9 mm at 5% RR-interval in dataset A, with 0.9/0.9 mm at 10% in dataset B, with 3/3 mm at 5% in dataset C, and finally 3/3 mm at 10% in dataset D.
