diceas written: “average DICE coefficientstated without value
source quote (p.11)
For the existing solid and calcified nodule types and sizes, the average DICE coefficient was greater than that of the predicate. For sub-solid nodules, the average DICE coefficient of the subject device was superior to the average DICE coefficient of the predicate device for solid nodules.

Each value carries its own analysis unit and task — never compare or pool across devices. Source: 510(k) summary PDF.
