[data request] NIH Deep Lesion Dataset

• Name of dataset: NIH Deep Lesion Dataset
• URL of dataset: https://www.nih.gov/news-events/news-releases/nih-clinical-center-releases-dataset-32000-ct-images
• License of dataset: Unknown
• Short description of dataset and use case(s): The National Institutes of Health’s Clinical Center has made a large-scale dataset of CT images publicly available to help the scientific community improve detection accuracy of lesions. While most publicly available medical image datasets have less than a thousand lesions, this dataset, named DeepLesion, has over 32,000 annotated lesions identified on CT images. The images, which have been thoroughly anonymized, represent 4,400 unique patients, who are partners in research at the NIH.

Folks who would also like to see this dataset in tensorflow/datasets, please thumbs-up so the developers can know which requests to prioritize.

And if you'd like to contribute the dataset (thank you!), see our guide to adding a dataset.

Start with docs/add_dataset.md and verify the dataset details at the NIH URL, especially the currently unknown license. Done means the DeepLesion dataset has been prepared according to the contribution guide and is ready for inclusion in tensorflow/datasets.
