Abstract:

We examined the differences in 378 repeated spectroscopic measures of the cervix. To assess the repeatability of this functional data, we deconstructed the differences into a shape difference measure and an intensity difference measure. We then examined causes of variability and the importance of the order of measurements. Finally, we examined the classification concordance of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia between the repeat measurements.
