---|---|---|---|---|
Standard Neck CT | Larynx Protocol | Standard Neck CT | Larynx Protocol | |
Overstage (total), n = 27 | 0.30 (8) | 0.33 (9) | 0.07 (2) | 0.04 (1) |
Understage (total), n = 27 | 0.07 (2) | 0.07 (2) | 0.33 (9) | 0.48 (13) |
The number of over- and understaged cases are expressed here as a fraction of the total number of cases for each reader. Reader A tends to overstage and reader B tends to understage cancer, regardless of imaging technique.
