ROC curve. A) Performance of the craniocaudal cortical lysis threshold. No risk of fracture if the craniocaudal cortical involvement is less than 42.5 mm. 45 mm threshold: sensitivity = 100%, specificity = 85.7%, positive predictive value = 66.7%, negative predictive value = 100%. B) Performance of the circumferential cortical involvement threshold. No risk of fracture if the circumferential cortical involvement is less than 27%. 30% threshold: sensitivity = 100%, specificity = 89%, positive predictive value = 71%, negative predictive value = 100%.
