Table 4 The sensitivities, specificities, positive predictive values (PPV), negative predictive values (NPV), area under the curves (AUC), and P-values of the optimum threshold values of the post-treatment SUV and SUV for differentiation of responders from non-responders
From: Role of PET/CT in post-therapeutic assessment of bronchogenic carcinoma
Parameter | Optimum threshold value | Sensitivity | Specificity | PPV | NPV | AUC | P-value |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
