Table 2.
Agreement between the two readers regarding MM pattern and lesions numbers according to anatomic districts (skull, sternum and ribs, spine, upper limbs, pelvis, and lower limbs). The 95% CIs were computed by bootstrap.
| N = 64 | Agreement (κ; 95% CIs) | p-Value | τ-Value (95% CIs) | p-Value |

* Grouped as negative findings, focal, diffuse, combined. ^ Grouped as no lesions, <5 lesions, 5–20 lesions, >20 lesions.
