  • a Mean √MSE and corresponding 95% CIs are shown for different region-of-interest and acquisition-time datasets, as well as P values derived from the GEE models. √MSE is a measure of variability of data points around a straight line: a value close to zero indicates a smaller spread of data points around the line, corresponding to a better fit.
