Interobserver Reliability of the Coronary Artery Disease Reporting and Data System in Clinical Practice.

Abstract:

PURPOSE:This study aimed to evaluate interobserver reproducibility between cardiothoracic radiologists applying the Coronary Artery Disease Reporting and Data System (CAD-RADS) to describe atherosclerotic burden on coronary computed tomography angiography. METHODS:Forty clinical computed tomography angiography cases were retrospectively and independently evaluated by 3 attending and 2 fellowship-trained cardiothoracic radiologists using the CAD-RADS lexicon. Radiologists were blinded to patient history and underwent initial training using a practice set of 10 subjects. Interobserver reproducibility was assessed using an intraclass correlation (ICC) on the basis of single-observer scores, absolute agreement, and a 2-way random-effects model. Nondiagnostic studies were excluded. ICC was also performed for CAD-RADS scores grouped by management recommendations for absent (0), nonobstructive (1 to 2), and potentially obstructive (3 to 5) CAD. RESULTS:Interobserver reproducibility was moderate to good (ICC: 0.748, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.639-0.842, P<0.0001), with higher agreement among cardiothoracic radiology fellows (ICC: 0.853, 95% CI: 0.730-0.922, P<0.0001) than attending radiologists (ICC: 0.711, 95% CI: 0.568-0.824, P<0.0001). Interobserver reproducibility for clinical management categories was marginally decreased (ICC: 0.692, 95% CI: 0.570-0.802, P<0.0001). The average percent agreement between pairs of radiologists was 84.74%. Percent observer agreement was significantly reduced in the presence (M=62.22%, SD=15.17%) versus the absence (M=80.91%, SD=17.97%) of modifiers, t(37.95)=3.566, P=0.001. CONCLUSIONS:Interobserver reliability and agreement with the CAD-RADS terminology are moderate to good in clinical practice. However, further investigations are needed to characterize the causes of interobserver disagreement that may lead to differences in management recommendations.
