DICOM datasets

A directory of public DICOM, and a few closely related NIfTI, collections for radiologists and researchers training imaging models.

Each card is a link to the source download, plus the license, who can get in, and whether the set includes normals. Hounsfield Lab does not host images. The checked date is the day we loaded the source page. Files and terms change after that. This is not legal advice.

How to read a license

Unverified suggestions

Ideas sent through the form are not published by themselves. If we add one before checking the source, the card gets an orange badge and this warning: “UNVERIFIED — community-submitted, not reviewed by Hounsfield Lab; verify license and de-identification yourself.” We never host DICOM files or protected health information. Please don’t send either.

AREANeuroMODCTFORMATNIfTINORMALSPartialLICPhysioNet Restricted Health Data License 1.5.0CHECKED2026-10-18

How to access

Create a PhysioNet account and sign the Restricted Health Data Use Agreement 1.5.0 on the project (current version 1.3.1). Research use only. An older 1.2.0 release was CC BY 4.0; do not assume that still applies.

Limitations

The current release is not DICOM and is not the old CC BY package. Scans were saved from windowed AVI files into NIfTI, so Hounsfield units are not preserved. Faces were blurred. All subjects had traumatic brain injury; 36 of 82 had hemorrhage. Two radiologists marked hemorrhage type, fracture, and outlines.

Many cancer collections (TCGA, TCIA, CPTAC, NLST, LIDC, and others), harmonized to DICOM

Size. Portal of public cancer imaging, described by NCI as over 100 TB

AREANeuro, Chest, Body, Breast, Nuclear medicineMODCT, MR, PT, MG, CRFORMATDICOMNORMALSPartialLICMostly CC BY; a minority of files are CC-NC (each file is tagged)CHECKED2026-10-18

How to access

Browse collections in the portal. No registration. Files are in Google and AWS public buckets. Filter or inspect the license tag on each file before a commercial project.

Limitations

This is a portal, not one cohort. More than 95% of files are described as CC BY, which allows commercial reuse with attribution, but a subset is CC-NC. De-identification and face-reconstruction risk still apply to head imaging. Not a substitute for reading the license on the files you actually download.

Citation. Yes. Cite IDC and the underlying collection. Added 18 Oct 2026.

NLST (TCIA imaging subset)

Commercial OKVerifiedOpen download

Lung-cancer screening low-dose CT, mostly without cancer, plus cancer cases

Size. 26,254 subjects; CT package about 11.3 TB

AREAChestMODCTFORMATDICOMNORMALSYesLICCC BY 4.0CHECKED2026-10-18

How to access

Open the collection page and use the download control in the Data Access table (TCIA Data Retriever or Aspera, whichever that row names). A public Creative Commons row does not need an application. Read the Citations & Data Usage Policy tab before use. The full NLST clinical dataset is still requested through the Cancer Data Access System (CDAS). TCIA hosts the CT images and a public subset of the clinical data.

Limitations

The TCIA copy is the public imaging release and a limited clinical subset, not every NLST variable. Screening CTs are low-dose and include a large majority of examinations without cancer. Histopathology slides are a separate download. Cite NLST as well as TCIA.

Citation. Yes. Cite the collection DOI on the TCIA page and follow the TCIA Data Usage Policy. Also cite the NLST trial when you use the cohort. Added 18 Oct 2026.

Non-commercialVerifiedAccount required

Lung point-of-care ultrasound, including clips with no abnormality, B-lines, and consolidation

Size. 226 adults; 1,871 clips (paper). AIMI copy is the Redivis dataset.

AREAUltrasoundMODUSFORMATvideoNORMALSPartialLICStanford AIMI research use agreement (non-commercial; commercial license sold separately)CHECKED2026-10-18

How to access

Sign in on Redivis, open this dataset, and apply for access. Accept the Stanford research-use terms for this dataset (each dataset is a separate request). Non-commercial research is free. Commercial use needs a separate AIMI license: https://aimi.stanford.edu/datasets-commercial-use DOI https://doi.org/10.57761/cqps-7z09 resolves to this record.

Limitations

Free access is for non-commercial research under a data-use agreement. Do not redistribute the files or the download link. Do not attempt to re-identify anyone. A paid commercial license is a different contract; check the current fee and terms on the AIMI commercial-use page. About half the patients had COVID-19 pneumonia, and about two-thirds of clips were read as having no abnormality. Frames were extracted and resized, so this is not a DICOM ultrasound export. GitHub and Academic Torrents mirrors may not carry the same terms; use the Redivis agreement for the AIMI copy.

Citation. Yes. Cite the dataset DOI or the citation block on the Redivis page, and name Stanford AIMI. The companion paper is Kumar et al., POCUS Journal 2026. Added 18 Oct 2026.

AREANeuroMODMRFORMATNIfTINORMALSPartialLICPer dataset, usually CC0 after a 36-month grace period (check source)CHECKED2026-10-18

How to access

Search OpenNeuro and open a dataset. Public versions download without a data-use agreement. Read that dataset’s license, README, and version DOI. New uploads can sit in a grace period before they are public.

Limitations

Almost all current releases are CC0, but the license is per dataset and older uploads varied. These are BIDS NIfTI, not clinical DICOM. Many datasets are small research cohorts. Facial features on structural MRI are supposed to be removed; still do not try to re-identify subjects.

Citation. Yes. Cite the version DOI. A HowToAcknowledge field, when present, is the authors’ requested wording. CC0 itself does not legally require attribution. Added 18 Oct 2026.
