Sw is intrameasurement standard deviation, computed as: sw2=1/2ndi2. Where, n is the number of cases, and di is the difference between two measurement for the same subject i.17, 18, 19

Statistical precision is the difference between a subject's measurement and the true value for 95% of observations and was defined as 1.96 × Sw.17, 18, 19

Repeatability was defined as 2.77 × Sw (= √2 * 1.96 * Sw). The difference between the two observations for the same candidate is expected to be less than the value noted for repeatability for 95% pairs.17, 18, 19
