The image data in The Cancer Imaging Archive is organized into purpose-built Collections.
A collection of studies typically includes studies from several subjects (patients). In some collections, there may be only one study per subject. In other studies, subjects may have been followed over time, in which case there will be multiple studies per subject. The subjects typically have in common a particular disease and/or particular anatomical site (lung, brain, etc.)
Below is a list of collections available from The Cancer Imaging Archive. Each link in the table contains information concerning the scientific value of a collection, as well as additional meta data where available from the data providers.
