Table 3
Contingency table of imaging findings versus pathology findings for excised specimens and neck imaging.
| Specimen imaging versus pathology | Postexcision neck imaging versus pathology | ā | Pathology positive | Pathology negative | ā | Pathology positive | Pathology negative |
| Specimen imaging positive | 20 | 0 | Neck imaging residual focus | 20 | 0 | Specimen imaging negative | 0 | 7 | Neck imaging focus gone | 0 | 7 |
| True positives for specimen imaging (specimen hot adenoma removed) | =100% | True positives for neck imaging (focus present adenoma not removed) | =100% | False positives for specimen imaging (specimen hot adenoma not removed) | =0% | False positives for neck imaging (focus present adenoma removed) | =0% | True negatives for specimen imaging (specimen cold adenoma removed) | =100% | True negatives for neck imaging (focus absent adenoma removed) | =100% | False negatives for specimen imaging (specimen cold adenoma not removed) | =0% | False negatives for neck imaging (focus absent adenoma not removed) | =0% |
