Dataset Description

CheXlocalize is a radiologist-annotated segmentation dataset on chest X-rays. The dataset consists of two types of radiologist annotations for the localization of 10 pathologies: pixel-level segmentations and most-representative points. Annotations were drawn on images from the CheXpert validation and test sets. The dataset also consists of two separate sets of radiologist annotations: (1) ground-truth pixel-level segmentations on the validation and test sets, drawn by two board-certified radiologists, and (2) benchmark pixel-level segmentations and most-representative points on the test set, drawn by a separate group of three board-certified radiologists. The validation and test sets consist of 234 chest X-rays from 200 patients and 668 chest X-rays from 500 patients, respectively. The 10 pathologies of interest were Atelectasis, Cardiomegaly, Consolidation, Edema, Enlarged Cardiomediastinum, Lung Lesion, Lung Opacity, Pleural Effusion, Pneumothorax, and Support Devices.
