NYUMets Brain Dataset: 8,000+ Brain MRIs for Metastases Research

Over 8,000 brain MRI scans from more than 2,000 patients diagnosed with brain metastases. The dataset is hosted on AWS Open Data and was contributed by the organization NYUMets. It is licensed for non-commercial use.

Use Cases

• Train brain tumor segmentation models based on the described MRI scans.
• Develop metastasis detection algorithms based on the large collection of annotated brain MRIs.
• Conduct clinical research on brain metastasis patterns and progression based on the multi-patient imaging data.
• Benchmark medical image analysis models based on the scale of the dataset.

Strengths

• Contains over 8,000 individual brain MRI scans.
• Includes data from more than 2,000 distinct patients.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Last update date is unknown; freshness unverified.
