Sorry - I will clarify:
The study had only 66 cancer cases 54 positive/12 negative from which the Sensitivity is calculated. This is a statistically small sample, so if you repeated the test with a different 66 cases the positive/negative balance and thus the sensitivity would be rather different. This where confidence intervals come in to it.

see UoJ Article abstract. [The astute may spot why a positive journal article or two more might help the PEB cause].
