RAOS (dataset&model weight, paper)

Now, the real CT dataset, trained model/log (based on nnunetv1 and 3D-UXNet) and synthetic MRI dataset have been fully released. Please check here RAOS.

Rethinking Abdominal Organ Segmentation (RAOS) in the clinical scenario: A robustness evaluation benchmark with challenging cases.

• This dataset consists of 413 real clinical CT scans and 413x9 MR scans, all 19 organs were annotated by a senior oncologist (MD. Wenjun Liao, 10 years experiment).
• some challenging cases in clinical practice can help evaluate the generalization and robustness of deep learning methods.
• Some organ annotations not present in previous public datasets (such as prostate, seminal vesicles, etc).

Acknowledgment and Statement

• Further details about this work can be found at here.
• Please note that a small part of the RAOS dataset is from our previous WORD (where these cases’ annotations are extended from 16 classes to 19 classes), the overlap patients were listed in the overlap_with_word.csv.
• The basic information was listed in raos_dataset_clinical_info.xlsx, where the patient did not have an organ annotation means missing organ after surgery (1-19 in men, female in 1-17).
• This project will be maintained by Xiangde Luo (from UETSC).
