The Bland-Altman (B-A) analysis and Lin's concordance correlation coefficient (CCC) were used to assess agreement.In SSSext's intra-observer repeatability, CCC showed substantial agreement for 4DM and QPS, and moderate agreement for ECTb for both observers. In inter-observer repeatability, CCC revealed substantial agreement for 4DM and QPS, and poor agreement for ECTb. Regarding TDE, CCC showed substantial intra-observer repeatability for both operators using all packages, while the inter-observer repeatability was substantial for 4DM and QPS, and moderate for ECTb.In SSSext's intra-observer repeatability for 4DM, ECTb and QPS, the B-A analysis provided (mean±1.96SD of paired measurements) 0.0±4.3, 0.2±7.8, -0.6±7.6 for the experienced physician and 0.2±5.9, 0.0±7.5, -0.5±5.4 for the trainee, respectively; in inter-observer repeatability it provided 0.2±5.4, 0.1±9.6, 0.2±8.1, respectively. Regarding TDE, the B-A values for intra-observer repeatability were 0.1±5.2, 0.1±7.9, 0.1±2.8 for the experienced reader and 0.3±6.6, -0.1±6.4, -0.1±2.4 for the trainee, respectively; in inter-observer agreement the B-A provided 0.6±6.4, -0.2±10.3, -0.1±4.3, respectively.Considerable differences in intra- and inter- observer agreement were noted for the quantitative determination of defect size using widely employed software packages, suggesting limitations in the clinical use of these measurements. Quantitative perfusion SPECT appears preferable, but with no significant advantage over 4DM. There were no significant differences between the observers. 000212535 536__ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF4-313$$a313 - Krebsrisikofaktoren und Prävention (POF4-313)$$cPOF4-313$$fPOF IV$$x0 000212535 588__ $$aDataset connected to DataCite, PubMed, , Journals: inrepo02.dkfz.de 000212535 650_2 $$2MeSH$$aHumans 000212535 650_2 $$2MeSH$$aSoftware 000212535 650_2 $$2MeSH$$aHeart 000212535 650_2 $$2MeSH$$aTomography, Emission-Computed, Single-Photon: methods 000212535 650_2 $$2MeSH$$aHeart Ventricles 000212535 650_2 $$2MeSH$$aPerfusion Imaging 000212535 650_2 $$2MeSH$$aReproducibility of Results 000212535 650_2 $$2MeSH$$aObserver Variation 000212535 7001_ $$0P:(DE-He78)bb6a7a70f976eb8df1769944bf913596$$aKopp-Schneider, Annette$$b1$$udkfz 000212535 7001_ $$aSachpekidis, Vasileios$$b2 000212535 7001_ $$aMoralidis, Efstratios$$b3 000212535 773__ $$0PERI:(DE-600)2186026-9$$a DOI:10.1967/s002449912516 $$gVol. 25, no. 3$$n3$$p274-284$$tHellenic journal of nuclear medicine$$v25$$x1108-1430$$y2022 000212535 909CO $$ooai:inrepo02.dkfz.de:212535$$pVDB 000212535 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)2036810-0$$6P:(DE-He78)bb6a7a70f976eb8df1769944bf913596$$aDeutsches Krebsforschungszentrum$$b1$$kDKFZ 000212535 9131_ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF4-313$$1G:(DE-HGF)POF4-310$$2G:(DE-HGF)POF4-300$$3G:(DE-HGF)POF4$$4G:(DE-HGF)POF$$aDE-HGF$$bGesundheit$$lKrebsforschung$$vKrebsrisikofaktoren und Prävention$$x0 000212535 9141_ $$y2022 000212535 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0100$$2StatID$$aJCR$$bHELL J NUCL MED : 2015 000212535 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0200$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bSCOPUS 000212535 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0300$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bMedline 000212535 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0199$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bThomson Reuters Master Journal List 000212535 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0111$$2StatID$$aWoS$$bScience Citation Index Expanded 000212535 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0150$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bWeb of Science Core Collection 000212535 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)9900$$2StatID$$aIF < 5 000212535 9201_ $$0I:(DE-He78)C060-20160331$$kC060$$lC060 Biostatistik$$x0 000212535 980__ $$ajournal 000212535 980__ $$aVDB 000212535 980__ $$aI:(DE-He78)C060-20160331 000212535 980__ $$aUNRESTRICTED
