Table 5.

Thresholds of the reliability measures (DSC, AVE, F1) for each category of WMH as well as confidence intervals of WMH volumes measured using QyScore® in comparison with experts’ consensus

QyScore® markers Thresholds QyScore® 97.5% confidence intervals
DSC AVE (mL) F1 DSC AVE (mL) F1
WMH low (< 5 mL) 0.27 2 0.284, 0.414 0.329, 0.666
WMH medium (5–15 mL) 0.51 5 0.647, 0.716 1.152, 2.518
WMH high (15–30 mL) 0.64 10 0.728, 0.771 2.648, 4.120 Ok
WMH very high (> 30 mL) 0.67 15 0.761, 0.811 6.186, 10.417
WMH whole sample 0.47 0.3 0.616, 0.674 0.352, 0.3911

Bold numbers highlight the fact that the values were above or below the defined tresholds
