Table 2.
Comparison of pathologists to self. Number of pathologists by the number of (> 2 standard deviation) outliers in relation to each pathologist’s mean call rate over the seven-year period. This tabulation shows the number of 2 SD outliers they had for each diagnosis, e.g. 8 pathologists had zero outlier years for HGD, 1 pathologist had 5 outlier years for TVA + VA (this is shown in Fig. 1H), 2 pathologists had 4 outlier years for SSA, 2 pathologists had 6 outlier years for SSA (one of the two pathologists is shown in Fig. 1G).
