| Suggested cutoff value [23] | 2D ultrasound Lambert method | 3D VOCAL method IC | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Reliability | ICC | Intraobserver ICC | Interobserver ICC | Intraobserver ICC | Interobserver ICC |
| Very poor | <0.95 | ||||
| Poor | 0.95–0.98 | 0.962 | |||
| Moderate | 0.98–0.99 | 0.981 | |||
| Good | 0.99–0.998 | 0.996 | 0.993 | ||
| Very good | >0.998 | ||||
| 2DUS – two-dimensional ultrasound; ICC – interclass correlation coefficient. | |||||
