Description
Mingjian Bai and co-authors check how well CT scans predict the spread score surgeons find in a rare belly cancer. Their 2023 study covers 167 patients with pseudomyxoma peritonei from the appendix, treated from 2016 to 2021. The score, called the peritoneal cancer index, grades how far the disease has spread.
Scan scores and surgery scores tracked each other closely, with rank links above nine-tenths. Agreement tests told a stricter story, though. Average gaps were small, yet about one case in twenty fell outside the wide agreement band. The pattern held for both the full score and a selected-region score. The authors warn that strong correlation alone does not prove scans can stand in for surgery.
