  1. Metrics reported are Dice similarity coefficient (DSC), Hausdorff distance (HD), 95 percentile HD (95% HD), modified HD (MHD), contour mean distance (CMD) and absolute volume difference (AVD). p-values were computed with a Wilcoxon signed-rank test between the inter-observer variability and method in comparison to the independent observers for each evaluation measure (columns 3 and 4). * indicates a significantly different result (p < 0.05).
