Description

  • Name of dataset: CT Lymph Nodes
  • URL of dataset: https://wiki.cancerimagingarchive.net/display/Public/CT+Lymph+Nodes
  • License of dataset: Creative Commons Arribution 3.0 Unported License
  • Short description of dataset and use case(s): This dataset contains 110,013 Computed Tomography (CT) images of the mediastinum and abdomen in which lymph node positions are marked by radiologists at the National Institutes of Health, Clinical Center. 388 mediastinal lymph nodes come from 90 patients and a total of 595 abdominal lymph nodes in 86 patients in this dataset. This collection could be useful to develop an automated detection of lymph nodes and could be an important clinical diagnostic tool.
