Mass of the CMEs predicted by the method (M_pred) vs. the CME mass determined from white-light data (M_WL) for the 32 analyzed events at 10 R_⊙. Blue circles represent masses predicted without applying the correction by the occulter effect, while magenta squares show the masses after the correction is applied. The filled symbols correspond to the events for which we could not apply the technique (see Sect. 4.1). The dotted straight line represents the identity line (M_pred = M_WL). The correlation coefficients and the errors σ_pred of the predicted mass at 10 R_⊙ are shown.
