Myocardial perfusion scintigraphy image database

health life sciences medicine

Description

This database provides a collection of myocardial perfusion scintigraphy images in DICOM format with all metadata and segmentations (masks) in NIfTI format. The images were obtained from patients undergoing scintigraphy examinations to investigate cardiac conditions such as ischemia and myocardial infarction. The dataset encompasses a diversity of clinical cases, including various perfusion patterns and underlying cardiac conditions. All images have been properly anonymized, and the age range of the patients is from 20 to 90 years. This database represents a valuable source of information for researchers and healthcare professionals interested in the analysis and diagnosis of cardiac diseases. Moreover, it serves as a foundation for the development and validation of image processing algorithms and artificial intelligence techniques applied to cardiovascular medicine. Available for free on the PhysioNet platform, its aim is to promote collaboration and advance research in nuclear cardiology and cardiovascular medicine, while ensuring the replicability of studies.
