Introduction
The Institute for Surgical Technology and Biomechanics, University of Bern, Switzerland, Charité - University Medicine Berlin, Centre of Muscle and Bone Research, Free University & Humboldt-University Berlin, Germany, Centre for Physical Activity and Nutrition Research, School of Exercise and Nutrition Sciences, Deakin University Burwood Campus, Australia and Institut für Diagnostische und Interventionelle Radiologie, Krankenhaus Porz Am Rhein gGmbH, Köln, Germany, are making this dataset available as a resource in the development of algorithms and tools for spinal image analysis.
Description
The database consists of T2-weighted turbo spin echo MR spine images of 23 anonymized patients, each containing at least 7 vertebral bodies (VBs) of the lower spine (T11 – L5). For each vertebral body, reference manual segmentation is provided in the form of a binary mask. All images and binary masks are stored in the Neuroimaging Informatics Technology Initiative (NIFTI) file format, see details at http://nifti.nimh.nih.gov/. Image files are stored as "Img_xx.nii" while the associated annotation files are stored as "Img_xx_Labels.nii", where "xx" is the internal case number for the patient.
Image annotations were prepared by Mr. Chengwen Chu (no professional training in radiology).
