Table 5 Diagnostic performance of SUVmax, ADC, and SUVmax/ADC ratio for distinguishing TNM stages. Positive T stage was regarded as ≥T2b

From: Diagnostic efficiency of whole-body 18F-FDG PET/MRI, MRI alone, and SUV and ADC values in staging of primary uterine cervical cancer

Stage SUVmax ADC SUVmax/ADC ratio
AUC (95% CI) AUC (95% CI) AUC (95% CI)
T stage 0.73 (0.52–0.95) 0.64 (0.38–0.90) 0.69 (0.44–0.93)
N stage 0.67 (0.39–0.94) 0.69 (0.44–0.93) 0.81 (0.57–1.00)
M stage 0.64 (0.37–0.90) 0.75 (0.51–1.00) 0.77 (0.56–0.97)
