ABSTRACT

The lack of publicly available datasets of computed-tomography angiography (CTA) images for pulmonary embolism (PE) is a problem felt by physicians and researchers. Although a number of computer-aided detection (CAD) systems have been developed for PE diagnosis, their performance is often evaluated using private datasets. In this paper, we introduce a new public dataset called FUMPE (standing for Ferdowsi University of Mashhad's PE dataset) which consists of three-dimensional PE-CTA images of 35 different subjects with 8792 slices in total. For each benchmark image, two expert radiologists provided the ground-truth with the assistance of a semi-automated image processing software tool. FUMPE is a challenging benchmark for CAD methods because of the large number (i.e., 3438) of PE regions and, more especially, because of the location of most of them (i.e., 67%) in lung peripheral arteries. Moreover, due to the reporting of the Qanadli score for each PE-CTA image, FUMPE is the first public dataset which can be used for the analysis of mortality and morbidity risks associated with PE. We also report some complementary prognosis information for each subject.
