Studies were classified as providing evidence of construct validity when quantitative ultrasound measurements were (1) able to distinguish between conditions or states known to be different on such constructs (known groups validity), or (2) compared either to an external measurement that is thought to reflect a similar construct and yielded similar results (convergent validity) or to a dissimilar construct and yielded dissimilar results (divergent validity) (Portney and Watkins 2008).
