Table 3:

Sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and NPV for rCBV, ADC, and their combination in the differentiation of high-grade from low-grade gliomas

Sensitivity Specificity PPV NPV
Max rCBV ≥ 1.74 94.4% 50.0% 88% 69.6%
Min ADC ≤ 1.185 97.6% 53.1% 89% 85%
Max rCBV ≥ 1.74 OR Min ADC ≤ 1.185 98.4% 31.3% 84.7% 83.3%
Max rCBV ≥ 1.74 AND Min ADC ≤ 1.185 93.5% 71.9% 92.8% 74.2%

Note:—PPV indicates positive predictive value; NPV, negative predictive value; Max, maximum; Min, minimum.
