Table 3.

Inter-platform reproducibility of liver stiffness (LS) and spleen stiffness (SS) measurements between the two platforms and for each observer (Obs. 1 and Obs. 2).

		p^*	ICC	CV (%)	CR (%)	Mean bias (%)	BALA
LS	Obs. 1	0.363	0.976	9.2	25.4	−3.3	[−28.7, 22.0]
LS	Obs. 2	0.326	0.979	11.5	29.7	−4.2	[−33.9, 25.4]
SS	Obs. 1	0.079	0.884	14.4	36.2	−9.2	[−45.4, 26.9]
SS	Obs. 2	0.061	0.912	13.1	35.6	−10.4	[−46.0, 25.1]

Paired t-test to compare scanners in terms of mean stiffness.

ICC: intra-class correlation

CV: coefficient of variation (%)

CR: coefficient of reproducibility (%)

BALA: Bland-Altman limits of agreement (%)
