Table 1 Quantitative measures and interrater reliability

From: Different angular kyphosis locations have different relative positions of aorta to spine in patients with Pott’s deformity

Parameters

Interrater Reliabilitya

Left pedicle-aorta (LtP-Ao) angle (α)

0.87 (0.82 to 0.90)

LtP-Ao distance (d1)

0.92 (0.85 to 0.95)

The pedicular line–aorta distance (d2)
