RSNA announces COVID-19 image data repository

The Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) announced a new initiative to build an Image Data Repository on COVID-19.

The open data repository will compile images and correlative data from institutions, practices, and societies from around the world to create a comprehensive source for COVID-19's research and education efforts. The image hosting, annotation, and analysis framework will allow researchers to:

• understand epidemiological trends
• generate new AI algorithms to help with detection of COVID-19 disease, differentiation from other pneumonia
• quantification of lung involvement in CT for prognosis or therapy planning.
