About
This dataset features Computed Tomography (CT) brain scans, specifically curated for the identification and segmentation of conditions such as cancer, tumors, and aneurysms. It serves as an important resource for research in medical fields, enabling the advancement of automated detection, diagnosis, and classification techniques. Each scan provides a detailed visual representation of a patient's brain.
Columns
The dataset includes a CSV file which provides metadata for each image file. The columns in this file are:
- dcm: A direct link to access the CT scan image in .dcm format.
- jpg: A direct link to access the CT scan image in .jpg format.
- type: Specifies the name of the brain disease depicted in the CT scan, which can be cancer, tumor, or aneurysm.
Distribution
The dataset comprises 256 distinct CT brain scans, provided in both .jpg and .dcm formats. These images are systematically organised within folders corresponding to the specific brain disease they represent (cancer, tumor, or aneurysm). A accompanying CSV file details each media entry, including links to both image formats and the associated disease type. The 'type' column distribution indicates approximately 35% cancer cases, 32% aneurysm cases, and 32% tumor cases. This dataset is presented as a static collection with no future updates anticipated.
Usage
This dataset is ideally suited for the development and evaluation of computer-based algorithms, machine learning models, and deep learning techniques. Its primary applications include the automated detection, diagnosis, and classification of brain abnormalities such as cancer, tumors, and aneurysms within medical imaging.
Coverage
The dataset focuses on detailed CT images of the human brain, specifically covering cases related to cancer, tumors, and aneurysms. It includes brain formations and allows for the detection of abnormalities. General demographic or geographic coverage information is not available within the dataset details.
