The Lukas Corpus consists of 4 parts: - Lukas 2D 16 Bit Medical DICOM Corpus - A set of two dimensional 16 bit radiographs in DICOM format, - Lukas 2D 16 Bit Medical Image Corpus - A set of two dimensional 16 bit radiographs in TIF format, - Lukas 2D 8 Bit Medical Image Corpus - A set of two dimensional 8 bit radiographs in TIF format, - Lukas 3D Medical DICOM Corpus - A set of three dimensional radiographs in DICOM format,
The 4 file sets of the Lukas Corpus are used to evaluate the practical performance of lossless compression algorithms in the medical imaging field. The first part contains 20 files of two dimensional 16 bit radiographs in DICOM format. The second part contains the same files as in the first part, but in TIF format. The third part contains the same files as in the first part, but in 8 bit TIF format. The fourth and last part contains 341 files, which form a three dimensional thorax in DICOM format.
The source data was made available by Professor Dr. Rainer Köster, Germany.
