Table 3.

Patient-based analysis on the diagnostic accuracy of PET/MRI and MRI in determining TNM stage. Positive T stage was regarded as ≥T2b

Stage PET/MRI MRI
Sens Spec Acc PPV NPV AUC (95% CI) Sens Spec Acc PPV NPV AUC (95% CI)
T stage (≥T2b 11/33) 91% 86% 88% 77% 95% 0.89 (0.76–1.00) 100% 50% 67% 50% 100% 0.75 (0.59–0.91)
N stage (N1 17/33) 59% 88% 73% 83% 67% 0.73 (0.56–0.91) 71% 75% 73% 75% 71% 0.73 (0.55–0.91)
M stage (M1 5/33) 60% 100% 94% 100% 93% 0.80 (0.53–1.00) 60% 74% 72% 30% 91% 0.67 (0.40–0.94)
