Table 1.

The prediction errors (millimeters) of individual-atlas and STAPLE-based multiple-atlas approaches with respect to clinical selections in 60 patient volumes are summarized with the medians (lower and upper quartile values in parentheses)

The p values of Wilcoxon signed-rank tests comparing the STAPLE-based prediction errors and individual-atlas-based prediction errors with respect to clinical selections are shown.
