Pancreas CT: 82 Abdominal 3D Scans from NIH Clinical Center

82 abdominal contrast-enhanced 3D CT scans were performed by the National Institutes of Health Clinical Center on 53 male and 27 female subjects. The cohort includes 17 healthy kidney donors and 65 patients selected for having neither major abdominal pathologies nor pancreatic cancer lesions. Subjects' ages range from 18 to 76 years.

Use Cases

• Train segmentation models for the pancreas based on 3D CT scan data.
• Study abdominal anatomy in contrast-enhanced CT scans from a controlled cohort.
• Develop algorithms to differentiate healthy abdominal tissue from non-cancerous pathologies.
• Benchmark medical imaging models using a dataset from a known clinical institution.

Strengths

• 82 3D CT scans provide volumetric imaging data.
• Data originates from the NIH Clinical Center, a known research institution.
• Cohort includes 17 healthy subjects and 65 patients without major pathologies, allowing for controlled comparisons.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count and file formats are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The dataset description is incomplete, referencing a full description on an external page.
