A dataset for Computer-Aided Detection of Pulmonary Embolism in CTA images [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 Todays, researchers in the field of Pulmonary Embolism (PE) analysis need to use a publicly available dataset to assess and compare their methods. Different systems have been designed for the detection of pulmonary embolism (PE), but none of them have used any public datasets. All papers have used their own private dataset.

Comprehensive clinical evaluation of novel 4DCT‐based lung function imaging methods
Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract Purpose Methods have been developed that apply image processing to 4DCTs to generate 4DCT‐ventilation/perfusion lung imaging. Traditional methods for 4DCT‐ventilation rely on Hounsfield‐Unit (HU) density‐change methods and suffer from poor numerical robustness while not providing 4DCT‐perfusion data.
