HRCTCov19 -- A High-Resolution Chest CT Scan Image Dataset for COVID-19 Diagnosis and DifferentiationIraj Abedi, Mahsa Vali, Bentolhoda Otroshi et al.
Introduction: During the COVID-19 pandemic, computed tomography (CT) was a popular method for diagnosing COVID-19 patients. HRCT (High-Resolution Computed Tomography) is a form of computed tomography that uses advanced methods to improve image resolution. Publicly accessible COVID-19 CT image datasets are very difficult to come by due to privacy concerns, which impedes the study and development of AI-powered COVID-19 diagnostic algorithms based on CT images. Data description: To address this problem, we have introduced HRCTCov19, a new COVID-19 high-resolution chest CT scan image dataset that includes not only COVID-19 cases of Ground Glass Opacity (GGO), Crazy Paving, and Air Space Consolidation but also CT images of cases with negative COVID-19. The HRCTCov19 dataset, which includes slice-level, and patient-level labels, has the potential to aid COVID-19 research, especially for diagnosis and differentiation using artificial intelligence algorithms, machine learning, and deep learning methods. This dataset is accessible through the web at: http://databiox.com and includes 181,106 chest HRCT images from 395 patients with four labels: GGO, Crazy Paving, Air Space Consolidation, and Negative.

CHMMOTv1 -- Cardiac and Hepatic Multi-Echo (T2*) MRI Images and Clinical Dataset for Iron Overload on Thalassemia PatientsIraj Abedi, Maryam Zamanian, Hamidreza Bolhasani et al.
Owing to the invasiveness and low accuracy of other tests, including biopsy and ferritin levels, magnetic resonance imaging (T2 and T2*-MRI) has been considered the standard test for patients with thalassemia (THM). Regarding deep learning networks in medical sciences for improving diagnosis and treatment purposes and the existence of minimal resources for them, we decided to provide a set of magnetic resonance images of the cardiac and hepatic organs. The dataset included 124 patients (67 women and 57 men) with a THM age range of (5-52) years. In addition, patients were divided into two groups: with follow-up (1-5 times) at time intervals of about (5-6) months and without follow-up. Also, T2* and, R2* values, the results of the cardiac and hepatic report (normal, mild, moderate, severe, and very severe), and laboratory tests including Ferritin, Bilirubin (D, and T), AST, ALT, and ALP levels were provided as an Excel file. This dataset CHMMOTv1) has been published in Mendeley Dataverse and is accessible through the web at: http://databiox.com.
