Observer Variability in CT Angiography Carotid Segmentation: Assessing Variability to Set Minimum Clinical Performance
CTA carotid pathology contouring inherently has limited clinician agreement due to small structure size and poor contrast. The reference-contour datasets produced by experienced clinicians are prone to inter-and intra-variability which must be carefully considered to ensure ML models developed from such datasets are not fatally flawed.
