The purpose of this study was to assess the diagnostic value of F-fluorodeoxy-glucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG PET/CT) for detection of lymph node (LN) metastasis of colorectal cancer. . A computerized search was performed to determine the relevant articles, published before October 2019. Stata Statistical Software, version 15.0, and Meta-Disc (version 1.4) were used for the meta-analysis.
the sensitivity, specificity, positive likelihood ratio, and negative likelihood ratio were 0.65, 0.75, 4.57, and 0.37 respectively. Studies that used SUV cut-off value (≤2.5) demonstrated the best accuracy.
F-FDG PET/CT shows a low sensitivity and high specificity for detecting the metastasis of LNs in patients with newly diagnosed colorectal cancer.
本研究旨在评估 F-氟脱氧葡萄糖正电子发射断层扫描/计算机断层扫描(FDG PET/CT)在检测结直肠癌淋巴结(LN)转移中的诊断价值。通过计算机检索,确定了 2019 年 10 月前发表的相关文章。使用 Stata 统计软件(版本 15.0)和 Meta-Disc(版本 1.4)进行荟萃分析。
敏感性、特异性、阳性似然比和阴性似然比分别为 0.65、0.75、4.57 和 0.37。使用 SUV 截断值(≤2.5)的研究显示出最佳的准确性。
对于诊断初诊结直肠癌患者的 LN 转移,FDG PET/CT 的敏感性较低,特异性较高。
