Diagnostic Performance of Ultrasound in Adult Appendicitis. A Retrospective Review of 331 Cases
The sensitivity of ultrasound in the detection of appendicitis had a prevalence of 16% in our predominantly young female cohort, with alternative gynaecological and abdominal diagnoses identified approximately 2:1. The sensitivity for ultrasound to detect appendicitis was 60%, with specificity of 98% and negative predictive value (NPV) of 93%.
