  • a Interrater agreement was determined with the intraclass correlation coefficient, and the 95% confidence intervals are given in parenthesis.

  • b Analysis was made twice: 1) for all patients (n = 55) with CMBs, on the basis of the initial KIDS CMB analysis; 2) for all patients with >1 CMB according to Rater 1.

  • c “All Raters” represents analysis among Raters 1, 2, and 3.
