Dataset

Motivation

Diversify available LUS research data and identify additional clinically relevant lung pathologies; support building AI tools to predict consolidation patterns and improve pediatric lung health diagnosis and management.

Sampling

Data collected by a single trained sonographer; interpretations by two radiologists who followed a learning curve to reach consensus on consolidation findings.
