Test Performance of Positron Emission Tomography and Computed Tomography for Mediastinal Staging in Patients with Non–Small-Cell Lung Cancer

Figure 4. Individual study estimates of sensitivity and 1 − specificity are shown for FDG-PET ( ) and CT ( ). The approximate points on the curves where FDG-PET and CT operate in current practice are indicated ( and , respectively).
