Receiver operating characteristic curves for diagnostic performance of the software on vessel tortuosity at each region of interest. Curves closer to the top-left corner indicate better diagnostic performance (sensitivity 100%, specificity 100%). Diagnostic accuracy was lower at multiplier 2 (AUC = 0.56), but substantially improved from multiplier 8 (AUC = 0.90) onwards, reaching ideal performance (AUC = 1.00) at multipliers of 14 and above. Data at multiplier 20 were insufficient for analysis due to insufficient peripheral vessel image resolution.
