Accuracy (95% CI) Sensitivity (95% CI) Specificity (95% CI)
A prediction model 95.69% (86.27% to 98.65%) 94.83% (85.62% to 98.92%) 96.55% (85.62% to 98.92%)
Cytology 68.10% (56.39% to 78.62%) 77.59% (64.73% to 87.49%) 58.62% (44.93% to 71.40%)

Abbreviations: BAL, SCC, squamous cell carcinoma; AC, adenocarcinoma; bronchoalveolar lavage. *, All p values < 0.05.
