Table 3.

Median (lower quartile, upper quartile) of the Euclidian distances between gold standards, clinical selections (Clinical), and multiple atlases based predictions using STAPLE (Atlas) for AC, PC, and MC points over 20 patient volumes

	Atlas vs. Gold Standard	Clinical vs. Gold Standard
	(a)	(b)
AC	0.65 (0.53, 0.84)	1.21 (0.74, 1.56)
		p = 0.007
PC	0.56 (0.42, 0.70)	1.06 (0.81, 1.25)
		p < 0.001
MC	0.41 (0.29, 0.53)	0.84 (0.62, 1.11)
		p < 0.001

Distances shown in column (a) and (b) are compared using a Wilcoxon signed-rank tests, and the corresponding p values are given.
