Abstract:
Quantitative imaging biomarkers (QIB) are increasingly used in clinical research to advance precision medicine approaches in oncology. Computed tomography (CT) is a modality of choice for cancer diagnosis, prognosis, and response assessment due to its reliability and global accessibility. Here, we contribute to the cancer imaging community through The Cancer Imaging Archive (TCIA) by providing investigator-initiated, same-day repeat CT scan images of 32 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients, along with radiologist-annotated lesion contours as a reference standard. Each scan was reconstructed into 6 image settings using various combinations of three slice thicknesses (1.25 mm, 2.5 mm, 5 mm) and two reconstruction kernels (lung, standard; GE CT equipment), which spans a wide range of CT imaging reconstruction parameters commonly used in lung cancer clinical practice and clinical trials. This holds considerable value for advancing the development of robust Radiomics, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) methods.
