Only 195 cases included final analysis after exclusion with previous having more than 24 hours interval between their CT studies. Both scores (CT-SS) were recorded 2 experienced radiologists compared clinical Interobserver agreement assessed for CX-SS CT-SS.In relation severity, sensitivity diagnosis moderate severe high (90.4% 100%) low mild (66.2%), while specificity (100%) (86.7%). The sensitivity, specificity, diagnostic accuracy CT-SS higher CX-SS. Pearson correlation coefficient demonstrated a strong positive (rs = 0.88, p < 0.001). inter-observer good (k 0.79, 0.001), it excellent 0.85, 0.001).CX-SS is disease, especially cases, tendency overestimation cases.
