L.J. Havrilesky et al. / G O 2005

ROC curve for PET to detect

pelvic nodal metastasis

in newly diagnosed cervical

cancer, with 95% confidence intervals

(Area under curve = 0.970).

Sensitivity: 79% (95% CI: 65-90%)

Specificity: 99% (95% CI: 96-99%)

No enough evidence exists for detection of nodal disease in early Cx cancer and cannot

replace lymph nodal dissection
