Note: Some patients had more than one diagnostic subcategory.
For SAT cases, there was agreement between the Manual Review cases (7375) and the Imager
Review cases (7346). For SBLB cases, there is agreement between the Manual Review cases (2186)
and the Imager Review cases (2252). Unsatisfactory cases were greater in the Manual Review cases
(66) versus the Imager Review cases (29).
The adjudicated results were used as a "gold standard" to define "true" specimen adequacy
classifications of the Bethesda System: SAT/SBLB and UNSAT. There were 58 "true" UNSAT
cases and 9569 "true" SAT/SBLB cases.
Table 13 below summarizes specimen adequacy performance for the Imager Review and Manual
Review arms for all four sites and all sites combined using the Bethesda System 1991 criteria.
Table 13: Adjudicated Review Versus Imager Review Specimen Adequacy
Summary for All Sites and All Sites Combined.
Sensitivity is a percent of "true" UNSAT slides classified in either study arm as UNSAT and specificity is a percent of
"true" SAT/SBLB slides classified in either study arm as SAT/SBLB.
