Concordance rate of a four-quadrant plot for repeated measurements
Abstract Background To assure the equivalence between new clinical measurement methods and the standard methods, the four-quadrant plot and the plot’s concordance rate is used in clinical practice, along with Bland-Altman analysis. The conventional concordance rate does not consider the correlation...
