titleDetailed Description

Detailed Description

Table will be populated once all data received. Any additional data description will be added here.

This dataset consists of left and right thoracic volume segmentations delineated on 402 CT scans from The Cancer Imaging Archive NSCLC Radiomics collection. Thoracic segmentations include lung parenchyma, tumor, atelectasis, adhesions, and effusion, when present. The initial thoracic segmentations were first generated automatically by a U-Net based algorithm trained on chest CTs without cancer, manually corrected by a medical student, and revised by a radiation oncologist or a radiologist.
On scans where effusion is present, separate segmentations labeling pleural effusion alone are also provided. Pleural effusion segmentations were manually delineated by a medical student and revised by a radiologist. Expert GTV segmentations already provided by the NSCLC Radiomics collection helped inform our segmentations, and areas of the effusion that overlap with GTVs are not included. Researchers interested in discriminating between GTV and effusion using imaging biomarker inputs may find our pleural effusion segmentations useful, especially when paired with the GTV segmentations provided in the NSCLC Radiomics collection.
Tabular data extending the tabular data accompanying the NSCLC Radiomics collection are also provided, including GTV, thorax, and effusion volumes (in cm3), tumor location, and image metadata. This dataset was utilized in a clinical informatics study correlating autosegmentation accuracy as gauged by several common metrics with time required for manual corrections.
