M1, M2 and M3 are measures taken at the distal tip of the 3rd phalanx, the most concave portion, and the flexor tubercle of the 3rd phalanx, respectively. CI = 95% confidence interval, ICC intraclass correlation coefficient
^aPresence of zero in the CI of intercept, and one in the CI of slope indicate the two methods are comparable
^bAbsence of zero in the CI of ICC indicate rejection of null hypothesis of no agreement
