Usefulness of Ki-67, Mitoses, and Tumor Size for Predicting Metastasis in Carcinoid Tumors of the Lung: A Study of 48 Cases at a Tertiary Care Centre in Canada

Table 1

Correlation between Ki-67 index calculation methods and type of carcinoid and metastasis.

	AC (%)/TC (%)	MG (%)/NMG (%)
	(P value)	(P value)
Ki-67 (MCM)	2.32/1.37	2.10/1.39
	(0.71)	(0.239)
Ki-67 (CIAM)	0.95/0.72	1.01/0.71
	(0.299)	(0.281)

AC: atypical carcinoid; TC: typical carcinoid; MG: metastatic group; NMG: nonmetastatic group; MCM: manual conventional method; CIAM: computer image analysis method.
