Table 2 Discriminatory properties of ultrasound parameters in the differentiation of pancreatic tumors.
Cut-off value | Sensitivity | Specificity | ACC | AUC | Significance (p) | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
TFV [cm/s] | 2.181 | 0.758 | 0.913 | 0.848 | 0.845 | |
TPI [cm/s] | 0.009 | 0.697 | 0.935 | 0.835 | 0.854 | |
CDVI [%] | 0.268 | 0.727 | 0.804 | 0.772 | 0.828 | |
ACC – accuracy; AUC – area under curve; CDVI – vascularity index; TFV – tissue flow velocity; TPI – tissue perfusion intensity. |
