Two readers measured long and short axis diameter on the initial scan in T \u00a01 weighted, T \u00a02 weighted short tau inversion recovery and diffusion-weighted imaging sequences. The first reader additionally measured FL on the retest-scan. The Bland\u2013Altman method was used to assess limits of agreement (LoA), and the frequencies of absolute size changes were calculated.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>In the simple test\u2013retest experiment with one identical reader, a deviation of \u22651 mm \/ \u22652 mm \/ \u22653 mm for the long axis diameter in T \u00a01 weighted images was observed in 66% \/ 25% \/ 8% of cases. When comparing measurements of one reader on the first scan to the measurement of the other reader on the retest scan, a change of \u22651 mm \/ \u22653 mm \/ \u22655 mm for the long axis diameter in T \u00a01 weighted images was observed in 78% \/ 21% \/ 5% of cases.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Small deviations in FL size are common and probably due to variation in patient positioning or inter-rater variability alone, without any actual biological change of the FL.
