Coronal width 0.810 0.041 0.730–0.890 <0.001
Axial area 0.805 0.044 0.718–0.891 <0.001
Volume 0.768 0.044 0.681–0.854 <0.001
Axial length 0.732 0.048 0.637–0.827 <0.001
SIR 0.705 0.052 0.536–0.740   0.001
Coronal area 0.681 0.051 0.581–0.781 <0.001

AUC indicates area under the curve; SE, standard error; CI, confidence interval; SIR, signal intensity ratio of the lacrimal gland to the ipsilateral temporal muscle on fat-suppressed T2-weighted imaging.
