Pathology (no.) Imaging (no.) Sensitivity (95% CI)
USG 234 210 89.7% (85.0%–93.2%)
MIBI 180 164 91.1% (86.0%–94.8%)
USG or MIBI 238 229 96.2% (92.7%–98.1%)
CT 134 110 82.1% (74.3%–88.0%)
PET-CT 7 7 100.0% (56.1%–100.0%)

USG: cervical ultrasonography; MIBI: 99mTc-MIBI SPECT/CT; CT: cervical contrast-enhanced CT scan; PET-CT: 18F-FDG PET/CT; USG or MIBI: applied either the cervical ultrasonography or 99mTc-MIBI SPECT/CT.
