  1. Indices 1 and 2 are the position indices found during the training step. The correlations with 95% confidence intervals (CI) and the percentage errors with standard deviations (SD) are from the validation step when applying the found position indices, except for method 1 where the estimates were compared with all 62 fully delineated intracranial volumes from the beginning. *Position indices starting from the patients’ left. **Position indices randomly starting from the patients’ left or right, mean correlation and standard deviation from 500 tests
