FN = false-negative; FP = false-positive; TN = true-negative; TP = true-positive.

The total no. of patients classified as having possible fungus by each grader and therefore excluded from this analysis are as follows: grader 1 (n = 21), grader 2 (n = 23), grader 3 (n = 49), grader 4 (n = 16), grader 5 (n = 1).

Grader 5 was unmasked to ulcer clinical features.
