Table 2.
Number of three gradings, C > O, C = O, or C < O based on the highest number of traceable vessel branch by the two raters in the four retinal quadrants.
| Number of “O > C” | Number of “O = C” | Number of “O < C” | Kendall's coefficient of concordance | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Upper temporal (Rater 1/Rater 2) | 41/35 | 36/42 | 13/13 | 0.79 |
| Lower temporal (Rater 1/Rater 2) | 27/22 | 41/49 | 22/19 | 0.79 |
| Upper nasal (Rater 1/Rater 2) | 22/20 | 48/55 | 20/15 | 0.81 |
| Lower nasal (Rater 1/Rater 2) | 12/11 | 45/51 | 33/28 | 0.79 |
An image was graded as “O > C” when the highest number of traceable vessel branch was larger in the Optos image than in the Clarus image. An image was graded as “O < C” when the highest number of traceable vessel branch was larger on the Clarus image than on the Optos image. An image was graded as “O = C” when the highest number of traceable vessel branch was equal in the Optos and Clarus images. Inter-rater reliability in the grading of the image into “O > C,” “O < C,” or “O = C” by the two raters was assessed using Kendall's coefficient of concordance.
