a

Intra-reader values were slightly better than inter-reader values for all measures.

b

Intraclass correlation (ICC) is interpreted as follows: .3–.4 indicates poor agreement; .5–.6 indicates fair agreement; .7–.8 indicates moderate agreement; and >.8 indicates strong agreement.

c

Relative technical error of measurement or TEM Relative (standardized measurement variability) is interpreted as follows: Agreement between readings was defined as differences of ≤10%; borderline agreement as differences of 11–15; and disagreement as differences >15%.
