Hello @LOLO12,

Add the appropriate ODS OUTPUT statement to your PROC FREQ step (or immediately before it):

ods output senspec=want;

This assumes that your SAS version is at least 9.4M6 because the SENSPEC option of the TABLES statement was not yet available in maintenance release 5 (which I am using).

See ODS OUTPUT: Store any statistic created by any SAS procedure for more background information.

What is the name of the table? I searcher sas and I couldn't find the name for the sensitivity and specificity table.

The ODS table name is SenSpec (case-insensitive) and can be found on the page "ODS Table Names" of the "Details" section of the PROC FREQ documentation.

This is very similar to other (statistical) procedures: In virtually all cases, clicking on "Details" in the menu under the procedure name ("The XXXXXX Procedure") in the documentation will open a drop-down list with "ODS Table Names" and (if applicable) "ODS Graphics" as the last two entries.
