TABLE III. Test-retest reproducibility of the manual delineation of the LC and sclera.
“Measurements” shows the mean ± standard deviation (SD) of measured scleral thickness, LC thickness, and anterior LC contour length obtained from 5 independent measurements using the scans of Pig B’s ONH at 6mmHg. The uncertainty arising from contour delineations translated into a relative uncertainty in strain estimation, here estimated by the ratio SD÷mean.

---|---|---|---|
Measurements | 1063 ± 20 μm | 293 ± 16.3 μm | 3880 ± 41 μm |
lower bound of the relative uncertainty in strain* | 1.8% | 5.5% | 1.1% |
Additional potential imaging-related uncertainties are not included in this estimate. Delineations were always performed by the same author (BC).
