The p values with an asterisk (*) calculated from the paired t test indicate that the differences in the measurement between examiners is less than 0.05

ICC ₁ Intra-rater correlation coefficient, ICC ₂ Inter-rater correlation coefficient

p value: p values of the paired-sample t test of the measurements between senior and junior

* Significant difference in the measurement between examiners
