Assessment of agreement for paw thickness measurements, (a) Caliper method compared with the CT reference: The Bland–Altman plot contrasts the paw thickness measurements obtained with the caliper method against those from the CT reference. This plot reveals a consistent trend of underestimation and illustrates the broad limits of agreement, highlighting significant variability in these measurements. This analysis underscores the range of consistency within the caliper method measurements. (b) Scanner method compared with the CT reference: The Bland–Altman plot compares paw thickness measurements taken by the scanner method with the CT reference. This plot shows a lesser degree of underestimation and features narrower limits of agreement, suggesting greater consistency and enhanced reliability in the measurements provided by the scanner method. Caliper: Circumference measured using the silk method.
Scanner: Circumference measured using the scanner method.
CT: Circumference measured using micro-CT.
