Table 3. Reproducibility of automatic calcium scoring versus manual, and interscan reproducibility of automatic scoring, on breast planning CT.

Categorical a Continuous
Linearly weighted kappa (95% CI) Proportion of agreement (95% CI) Intraclass correlation coefficient of calcium (Agatston) scores (95% CI)
Automatic vs. manual (n = 163) 0.80 (0.74–0.87) 0.79 (0.72–0.85) 0.86 (0.81–0.89)
Breath-hold (n = 58) 0.86 (0.77–0.96) 0.88 (0.76–0.95) 0.95 (0.91–0.97)
Without breath-hold (n = 105) 0.77 (0.68–0.85) 0.74 (0.65–0.82) 0.66 (0.54–0.76)
Automatic vs. automatic(n = 294) 0.61 (0.50–0.72) 0.84 (0.80–0.89) 0.34 (0.23–0.44)
