Neer classification | 0.14 | (0.03-0.25) | Slight | 0.04 | (-0.05 to 0.13) | Slight | 0.10 | (-0.25 to 0.04) | 0.16 |

A kappa value less than 0 indicates poor agreement; a ∆ kappa value less than 0 indicates that agreement for conventional imaging with 3D models is lower than for conventional imaging only; LT = lesser tuberosity; GT = greater tuberosity.
