Description
This data set was created for use at the NCI-ISBI 2013 Challenge - Automated Segmentation of Prostate Structures. The challenge data set was divided into 3 parts including training, leaderboard and test data sets. This allowed participants to prepare their algorithms and test their results prior to submitting to a final test phase for selecting the winner.
Image data were selected from PROSTATE-DIAGNOSIS and Prostate-3T collections on TCIA. Cases consist of axial scans with half obtained at 1.5 T (Philips Achieva) with an endo-rectal receiver coil (fromBostonMedicalCenter) and the other half at 3T (Siemens TIM) with a surface coil (from Radboud University Nijmegen Medical Centre [RUNMC],Netherlands). They were acquired as T2-weighted MR axial pulse sequences with either 4 mm thick slices at 3T or 3 mm thick at 1.5T. Each file contains nearly all DICOM acquisition parameters except tags that specifically identify Private Health Information.
