2017, Gastrointestinal EndoscopyCitation Excerpt :Consequently, we found that TDG had very good agreement with CG. CG is subject to considerable interobserver variability unrelated to endoscopist experience, with previous studies demonstrating a κ of 0.38 for the diagnosis of varices, κ of 0.52 to 0.59 for variceal size, and κ of 0.17 to 0.6 for red signs.35-37 We attempted to remove the effect of interobserver variability by having the independent investigator individually grade both the TDG and CG videos for all patients and found very good agreement for the detection of varices (κ = 0.86) and for grading of HREV (κ = 0.83).
