CT Scans of Spine with Metastases (Lytic, Sclerotic)

This dataset comprises 38 CT scans of the spine with identified and segmented metastatic lesions, focusing on two types of metastases: lytic and sclerotic. The dataset was used in the research article, "Artificial Intelligence Assisted Detection and Localization of Spinal Metastases." Each CT scan includes detailed metadata, such as:

• Type of Metastasis: Classified as either lytic or sclerotic.
• Primary Site of Metastasis: The original location of the cancer that metastasized to the spine, including sites such as melanoma, lungs, ovary, breast, prostate, kidney, blader, large intestine, multiple myeloma, stomach.
• Sex: Patient gender (male or female).

This dataset was collected for research purposes and can serve as a valuable resource for further studies in oncology, radiology, and artificial intelligence-assisted diagnostics. The dataset is anonymized to ensure patient confidentiality.
