A Dataset for Benchmarking Machine Learning Models for Autonomous Deep Vein Thrombosis Detection Based on Compression Ultrasound Videos

Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a major vascular condition associated with substantial morbidity, mortality and healthcare burden. Compression ultrasonography, performed and interpreted by medical experts, is the primary diagnostic method. Advances in machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) offer promising
opportunities to support automated and real-time DVT assessment by non-experts. However, existing approaches rely on pixel-wise vessel annotations, which are costly to generate, posing difficulties in developing models that generalize across devices and acquisition protocols. To address these limitations, we introduce
the ThrombUS+ Dataset #1. The Dataset is based on 2919 segmentation-free compression ultrasound videos from 742 patients suspected of DVT, acquired from a multicenter cohort study across 5 European hospitals.
