A deformable template method for describing and averaging the anatomical variation of the human nasal cavity

BMC Medical Imaging

Table 1 Matching performance of method presented in paper

	Left (a)	Right (a)	Left (b)	Right (b)
Inferior branch point	0.85	0.65	0.81	0.85
Inferior meatus curve	0.85	0.73	0.89	0.77
Middle meatus curve	0.71	0.62	0.77	0.81
Superior curve	0.85	0.69	0.62	0.65

Shown is the proportion of features that are correctly matched using the deformation algorithm. (a) Refers to the area of the nasal cavity where the inferior and middle meatuses are present; (b) refers to the area where the superior meatus is also present
