Differences in kidney volume, when measured using T1 or T2 weighted images

Volumes (mL) Differences in volume (mL)
[T1–T2]
Differences in volume (%)
[(T1 − T2)/average T1|T2 × 100]
T1 T2 Bias Precision P value Bias Precision P value
Left kidney 1015 [657–1260] 1012 [648–1333] −7.2 81.4 0.6 −0.2 5.7 0.7
Right kidney 846 [512–1188] 874 [513–1246] −24.0 63.4 <0.001 −1.5 7.0 0.06
Total kidney 1932 [1180–2551] 1867 [1172–2721] −31.2 119.2 0.006 −0.8 5.1 0.2

Values are given as median [IQR]. P values are calculated using a paired Wilcoxon signed-rank test for absolute differences; for percentage differences a one sample T test was used
