---|---|---|---|---|---|
κ | κ | κ | κ | κ | |
overall image quality | 0.7 | 0.8 | 0.8 | 0.8 | 0.8 |
noise | 0.8 | 0.7 | 0.7 | 0.8 | 0.7 |
contrast | 0.9 | 0.8 | 0.8 | 0.7 | 0.7 |
artifact | 0.8 | 0.8 | 0.9 | 0.8 | 0.6 |
septal cartilage | 0.8 | 0.6 | 0.9 | 0.7 | 0.7 |
upper lateral cartilage | 0.7 | 0.7 | 0.9 | 0.8 | 0.7 |

Note. The inter-rater agreement of image quality indices was evaluated by kappa statistics, κ = Kappa values, 0.00–0.20, 0.21–0.40, 0.41–0.60, 0.61–0.80, and 0.81–1.00 indicated poor, fair, moderate, good, and excellent agreement, respectively. T1WIO = original T1-weighted FSE images, T1WIDL = deep learning–reconstructed T1-weighted FSE images, T2WIO = original T1-weighted FSE images, T2WIDL = deep learning–reconstructed T2-weighted FSE images, 3D FSPGR = three-dimensional fast spoiled gradient-recalled images.
