Medical Imaging Datasets listed by type of Imaging Modality
Multiplex Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (M-FISH)
M-FISH Chromosome Imaging Database
"Images of chromosomes may be obtained using a number of methods. One such method, is Multiplex Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (M-FISH) which is a chromosome imaging technique developed in the mid 1990's. The first paper on the M-FISH technique was published in 1996 by Speicher et al. and it revolutionized chromosome imaging."
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)Structural Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Open Access Structural Imaging Series (OASIS)
"This set consists of a cross-sectional collection of 416 human subjects aged 18 to 96, including individuals with Alzheimer’s disease; T1-weighted MRI scans obtained in single scan sessions are included."
Efficient Longitudinal Upload of Depression in the Elderly (ELUDE)
"The ELUDE dataset is a longitudinal study of late-life depression at Duke University."
BIRN Multi-site Multi-session Structural MRI Data
"This data set consists of spoiled gradient-recalled echo magnetic resonance imaging data from five healthy volunteers (four males and one female) scanned twice at four sites having 1.5T systems from different vendors (Siemens, GE, Marconi Medical Systems)."
Multisite Imaging Research In the Analysis of Depression (MIRIAD)
"A multiple institution study of structural MRI, including raw PD and T2 MRIs and derived measures of white matter changes, basal ganglia and other regions."
High SNR Healthy Volunteer DTI Calibration Dataset at 1.5T
"This dataset contains the acquired DTI data and the co-registered DTI data for a healthy male volunteer scanned on three separate scanning sessions over 2 days."
Human Functional Imaging Data"The following are large and diverse datasets collected as part of the MBIRN and FBIRN collaboratories and throughout clinical imaging communities at large."
BrainScape_BS002 – BrainScape Resting State fMRI Dataset 1
"This dataset includes seventeen healthy subjects with four resting state fixation scans plus one T1 scan and one T2 scan."
BrainScape_BS003 – BrainScape Resting State fMRI Dataset 2
"This dataset includes ten healthy subjects scanned 3 times with 3 conditions: eyes open, eyes closed, and fixating in addition to two anatomical scans (T1 and T2)."
fBIRN PhaseII – Neuroimaging Calibration Study (Phase II)
"The FBIRN multi-site dataset of subjects with schizophrenia and controls includes functional MRI images, behavioral data, demographic, and clinical assessments on 253 subjects from around the US."
fBIRN TravelingSubject2003 – Traveling subjects study (Phase I)
"This dataset includes five healthy subjects imaged twice at each of ten FBIRN MRI scanners on successive days."
fMRI Calibration Data (Agar Phantom QA)
"The FBIRN agar phantom is used regularly for Quality Assurance, to assess scanner stability."
Microscopy (confocal and electron microscopy)
Cell Centered Database (CCDB)
"The Cell Centered Database (CCDB) is a web accessible database for high resolution 2D, 3D and 4D data from light and electron microscopy, including correlated imaging."
- I have listed brief descriptions of publicly available medical imaging datasets with links to their respective webpages. Brief descriptions, directly from the respective web-pages, are listed in double quotes.
- I would like to acknowledge the Biomedical Informatics Research Network's data repository. A lot of the information for the MRI datasets listed below is obtained from this website.
- The motivation for this webpage came during discussions at the 2004 IEEE EMBS International Summer School on Biomedical Imaging
Images from a number of imaging modalities are available at the National Biomedical Imaging Archive (NBIA). One can search for specific images on this website. - Another fantastic data website is the xnat CENTRAL. As of 01-June-2010, this database currently contains 161 Projects, 1995 Subjects, and 2806 Imaging Sessions!
