Annotation files: MED_ABD_LYMPH_ANNOTATIONS.zip (new 6/24/2015). The annotations include a folder for each case with text files of voxel indices, physical coordinates, size measurements and a MITK point set file (.mps), which can be visualized using the MITK workbench (Note: only release 2014.10.0 and later supports visualization of point set files using the "point set interaction plugin"). Abdominal size measurements include the longest and shortest axis in axial view of a lymph node. The shortest axis is used for the RECIST criteria. The mediastinal set only includes the shortest axis.

The DICOM files were created from volumetric images (Analyze and NifTI) using this from ITK:  

Computer-generated candidate detections for mediastinal and abdominal lymph nodes (produced by methods in [K. Cherry et al., SPIE Med. Img. 2014] and [J. Liu et al., SPIE Med. Img. 2014]]).  See attached: MED_ABD_LYMPH_CANDIDATES.zip (new 9/14/2015).
