Table 4.

Level of agreement in lesion diagnoses after Initial Review Stage. Cells contain the count of slide pairs with the column label showing the diagnosis of one reviewer and the row label showing the diagnosis of the other reviewer. The actual identity of the reviewer is not reflected in this table; rather it reports all of the observed diagnostic combinations after the Initial Review Stage. The diagonal cells (gray) contain the count of diagnostic pairs where both reviewers were in complete agreement in their diagnosis. For example: the cell where the “Benign” column crosses with the “Dysplastic Mild” row represents 128 subject biopsies where one reviewer diagnosed one slide as benign and the other reviewer diagnosed the other slide as dysplastic mild.
