Table 3: Intra Image Results, Axial-Strain. The values are for the axial direction component. The values are comparisons within multiple strain measurements of the same image. For the bursal side, mid-substance, and joint side section of the widest portion of the tendon, the mean, as a percent change in length, ICC, SEM with 95% confidence interval and MDC with 95% confidence interval in the same units as the mean.
