Evaluation scheme of AI segmentations

Rating Criteria
1. Perfect/optimal The segmentation is as good as manual segmentation, that is, no false positive or false negative segmentations
2. Optimal with minor adjustments The segmentation contains all lesions and only minor* false positives or false negatives
3. Acceptable with minor adjustments The segmentation contains the majority of the lesions (at least 1 and ≤ 3 missing) and ≤ 2 false positive segmentations. Additionally only minor* false positives or false negatives
4. Acceptable with major adjustments The segmentation contains most of the lesions (at least 1 and ≤ 6 missing) and ≤ 4 false positive segmentations. Additionally only minor* false positives or false negatives
5. Non-usable The segmentation does not contain enough of the lesions (≥ 7 lesions missing or no lesions segmented if less than 7 lesions present) or too many false positives (≥ 5) for correction to be meaningful

* Minor is defined as only parts of a predicted lesion are wrong
