Table 1 Sensitivity of imaging in detection of metastases

From: Real time contrast enhanced ultrasonography in detection of liver metastases from gastrointestinal cancer

Imaging modality

Cases (Sensitivity%)

CEUS

62 (95.4%)

Conventional b-mode US

50 (76.9%)

Spiral CT

59 (90.8%)

  1. Value of p calculated using Mc Nemar Test:
  2. CEUS vs CT: p = 0.508
  3. CEUS vs Conventional b-mode US: p <0.001
  4. CEUS vs CT: p = 0.035
  5. CEUS, contrast enhanced ultrasonography; CT, computed tomography. Total number of case-patients with liver metastases = 65.
