Geometrical-attribute based comparison of inter-operator manual segmentation is demonstrated using MRI of articular cartilage. When combined with Bland-Altman analysis rather than more commonly used regression approach, such inter-operator assessment could provide a more insightful comparison that is not biased by the underlying segmentation-based quantity (e.g., T2 or T1 lower case Greek rho value) and can be also extended to segmentation assessment based on semi-/automatic schemes.
