Summary

This dataset contains standardized DICOM representation of the annotations and characterizations collected by the LIDC/IDRI initiative, originally stored in XML and available in the TCIA Data from The Lung Image Database Consortium (LIDC) and Image Database Resource Initiative (IDRI): A completed reference database of lung nodules on CT scans (LIDC-IDRI) collection . Only the nodules that were deemed to be greater or equal to 3 mm in the largest planar dimensions have been annotated and characterized by the expert radiologists performing the annotations. Only those nodules are included in the present dataset.

Conversion was enabled by the pylidc library (https://pylidc.github.io/) (parsing of XML, volumetric reconstruction of the nodule annotations, clustering of the annotations belonging to the same nodule, calculation of the volume, surface area and largest diameter of the nodules) and the dcmqi library (https://github.com/qiicr/dcmqi) (storing of the annotations into DICOM Segmentation objects, and storing of the characterizations and measurements into DICOM Structured Reporting objects). The script used for the conversion is available at https://github.com/qiicr/lidc2dicom. The details on the process of the conversion and the usage of the resulting objects are available in the preprint citation (see Citations & Data Usage Policy tabsection).

What changed: DICOM SEG objects no longer encode empty slices to reduce object size. The coded terms used to describe the nodule annotations now use  fewer non-standard (99QIICR) codes. SegmentLabel attribute is populated in the DICOM SEG objects to list  nodule annotation name instead of "Nodule", to help with readability
for the user.
