+    The Wasserstein distance quantifies the minimum "work" required to transform

+    Compute Structural Similarity Index (SSIM) between two dose distributions.
+    
+    SSIM is a perceptual metric that quantifies image quality degradation
+    based on luminance, contrast, and structure. Originally developed for
+    image comparison, it's applicable to dose distributions.
+    
+    Parameters
+    ----------
+    dose1 : Dose
+        Reference dose distribution.
+    dose2 : Dose
+        Comparison dose distribution.
+    structure : Structure, optional
+        If provided, compute SSIM only within structure volume.
+        If None, compute for entire dose grid.
+    window_size : int, optional
+        Size of sliding window for local SSIM computation (default: 11).
+    k1 : float, optional
+        Algorithm parameter (default: 0.01).
+    k2 : float, optional
+        Algorithm parameter (default: 0.03).
+    
+    Returns
+    -------
+    ssim : float
+        Mean SSIM value (0-1, where 1 is perfect similarity).
+    
+    Notes
+    -----
+    SSIM ranges from -1 to 1:
+        - 1: Perfect similarity
+        - 0: No structural similarity
+        - -1: Perfect anti-correlation
+    
+    SSIM considers three components:
+        - Luminance: Compares mean intensities
+        - Contrast: Compares standard deviations
+        - Structure: Compares correlation

+            - **Max constraint**: Maximum dose in structure must not exceed the constraint level
+            - **Mean constraint**: Mean dose in structure must not exceed the constraint level

+            
+            Compliance checking helps ensure treatment plans meet clinical protocol requirements and 
+            safety constraints. Non-compliant structures may require plan optimization or protocol

+            - **Conformity Index (CI)**: Ratio of the prescription isodose volume to the target volume. 
+              An ideal CI is 1.0, indicating the prescription isodose perfectly conforms to the target.
+              
+            - **Conformation Number (CN)**: Product of target coverage fraction and dose selectivity. 
+              Accounts for both target underdosage and normal tissue overdosage. Optimal value is 1.0.
+              
+            - **Gradient Index (GI)**: Ratio of the 50% isodose volume to the prescription isodose volume. 
+              Measures dose fall-off outside the target. Lower values indicate steeper dose gradients.

+            ### Gamma Analysis Summary
+            
+            Gamma analysis with **{dose_criteria}%/{distance_criteria}mm** criteria:
+            
+            - **Passing Rate**: {gamma_stats['passing_rate']:.2f}% of points have gamma ≤ 1.0
+            - **Mean Gamma**: {gamma_stats['mean_gamma']:.3f}
+            - **Maximum Gamma**: {gamma_stats['max_gamma']:.3f}
+            
+            ### Interpretation
+            
+            The gamma index combines dose difference and distance-to-agreement into a single metric:
+            - Gamma ≤ 1.0: Point passes (dose agreement within criteria)
+            - Gamma > 1.0: Point fails (dose disagreement exceeds criteria)
+            
+            A passing rate of ≥ 95% is typically considered acceptable for clinical treatment verification.
+            
+            ### Criteria Used
+            
+            - **Dose Difference**: {dose_criteria}% (percentage of reference dose)
+            - **Distance-to-Agreement**: {distance_criteria}mm (spatial tolerance)
+            - **Low Dose Threshold**: {threshold}% (doses below this are excluded)

+            ### Metric Definitions
+            
+            - **Dice Coefficient**: Measure of overlap between two segmentations (0 = no overlap, 1 = perfect overlap). 
+              Values > 0.7 generally indicate good agreement.
+              
+            - **Jaccard Index**: Alternative overlap metric, more sensitive to size differences than Dice.
+              
+            - **Volume Difference**: Absolute difference in volume (cc) between the two structures.
+              
+            - **Volume Ratio**: Ratio of volumes (Set1 / Set2). Values close to 1.0 indicate similar volumes.
+              
+            - **Sensitivity**: Fraction of Set1 that overlaps with Set2 (measures false negatives).
+              
+            - **Specificity**: Fraction of Set2 that overlaps with Set1 (measures false positives).
+              
+            - **Hausdorff Distance**: Maximum distance from a point in one set to the nearest point in the other. 
+              Sensitive to outliers.
+              
+            - **Mean Surface Distance**: Average distance between the surfaces of the two structures.

+            ### Metric Definition
+            
+            The **Homogeneity Index (HI)** quantifies the uniformity of dose distribution within the target volume.
+            It is calculated as:
+            
+            HI = (D_max - D_min) / D_prescription
+            
+            Where:
+            - D_max is the maximum dose in the target
+            - D_min is the minimum dose in the target
+            - D_prescription is the prescribed dose
+            
+            **Interpretation:**
+            - HI < 0.15: Excellent homogeneity
+            - 0.15 ≤ HI < 0.30: Acceptable homogeneity
+            - HI ≥ 0.30: Poor homogeneity
+            
+            Lower HI values indicate more uniform dose distribution, which is generally desirable for target volumes.

-        - Check out [www.contouraid.com](https://www.contouraid.com) for more information.
+        This web application provides comprehensive tools for analyzing radiotherapy dose distributions 
+        and structure segmentations. Calculate dose-volume histograms (DVH), evaluate clinical constraints, 
+        and assess treatment plan quality.
+        
+        ## Getting Started
+        
+        ### Option 1: Use Example Data
+        Select any analysis tab and choose "Use example data" to try the application with pre-loaded datasets:
+        - Local data: Test subject and longitudinal timepoints from your local installation
+        - HuggingFace data: Example datasets from contouraid/dosemetrics-data
+        
+        ### Option 2: Upload Your Own Data
+        Upload your dose distribution and structure masks in NIfTI format (.nii.gz):
+        - Dose file: 3D dose distribution volume
+        - Structure masks: One file per anatomical structure (organs at risk, targets)
+        
+        ## Available Analyses
+        
+        ### Basic Analysis
+        1. **Calculate DVH**: Compute dose-volume histograms for all structures
+        2. **Visualize Dose**: View dose distributions slice-by-slice
+        3. **Dose Statistics**: Calculate comprehensive dose statistics (mean, max, min, DVH metrics)
+        
+        ### Quality Metrics
+        4. **Conformity Analysis**: Evaluate conformity indices for target volumes (CI, CN, GI)
+        5. **Homogeneity Analysis**: Assess dose homogeneity within target volumes (HI)
+        6. **Compliance Checking**: Verify compliance with clinical dose constraints
+        
+        ### Comparison Tools
+        7. **Geometric Comparison**: Compare structure sets using geometric metrics (Dice, Jaccard, Hausdorff distance)
+        8. **Gamma Analysis**: Perform gamma analysis between dose distributions
+        
+        ## Resources
+        
+        - Live App: dosemetrics.streamlit.app
+        - Example Dataset: HuggingFace Dataset (https://huggingface.co/datasets/contouraid/dosemetrics-data)
+        - Documentation: GitHub Repository (https://github.com/contouraid/dosemetrics)
+        - More Info: www.contouraid.com
+        
+        ## Usage Tips
+        
+        - Start with example data to familiarize yourself with the interface
+        - Ensure your structure files follow consistent naming conventions
+        - Download results as CSV for further analysis
+        - All processing happens locally in your browser
