  1. The following metrics are shown: sensitivity (or recall), specificity, precision, and F1 score. Margin status was predicted using intensity thresholding (Intens thresh) and the Residual U-Net (ResU-Net) applied to the micro-PET-CT input. The performance of both methods is compared to the performance of seven physicians manually interpreting the same images. Both the scores obtained through a majority vote of these seven physicians, as well as the mean scores (± standard deviation) across the seven physicians are shown. The performance scores for these seven physicians were previously described by De Crem et al.9.
