92.9%c (67.8–98.8)

CT

90.4%a (84.8–94.1)

86.4%c (60.4–96.4)

  1. Model estimates of the repeatability and reproducibility for intervertebral disc (IVD) calcification scoring by radiography, computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (interpreted as positive if MRI Pfirrmann grade ≥3), with 95% confidence intervals reported in brackets. Within a column, different superscript letters indicate significant differences between modalities
