The October 2011 Size Estimations from a July 2011 Snapshot (Note: this is an update to the September Report) In early July 2011, the NCI made available, in the newly created The Cancer Imaging Archive (TCIA), an extended set of 1308 chest CT and X-Ray scans, documented by the Lung Imaging Database Consortium (LIDC) and the Image Database Resource Initiative (IDRI). The nodule size list provides size estimations for the nodules identified The size information reported here is derived directly from the CT scan annotations. used here was not considered to be superior to others. concerning algorithms applied to the LIDC-IDRI database were included. The proposed approach is verified by conducting experiments on the lung computed tomography (CT) images from the publicly available LIDC-IDRI database.

With the LoDoPaB-CT Dataset we aim to create a benchmark that allows for a fair comparison. For this challenge, we use the publicly available LIDC/IDRI database. Objectives: To benchmark the performance of state-of-the-art computer-aided detection (CAD) of pulmonary nodules using the largest publicly available annotated CT database (LIDC/IDRI), and to show that CAD finds lesions not identified by the LIDC's four-fold double reading process. The size lists provided below are for historic interest only and should only information reported here is derived directly from the CT scan annotations. • CAD can identify nodules missed by an extensive two-stage annotation process.

The task of this challenge is to automatically detect the location of nodules from volumetric CT images. The LIDC/IDRI Database contains 1018 cases, each of which includes images from a clinical thoracic CT scan and an associated XML file that records the results of a two‐phase image annotation process performed by four experienced thoracic radiologists. All reference lists of the included articles were manually searched for further references. Each radiologist marked lesions they identified as non-nodule, nodule < 3 mm, and nodules >= 3 mm. • The LIDC/IDRI database is an excellent database for benchmarking nodule CAD. A deep learning computer artificial intelligence system is helpful for early identification of ground glass opacities (GGOs).
