CSAW-M: An Ordinal Classification Dataset for Benchmarking Mammographic Masking of Cancer

<div><div><b>Welcome to the the CSAW-M dataset homepage</b><br></div></div><div><p>This page includes the files and metadata related to the <em>CSAW-M, a curated dataset of mammograms with expert assessments of the masking of cancer</em>.</p> <p>CSAW-M is collected from over 10,000 individuals and annotated with potential masking. In contrast to the previous approaches which measure breast image <em>density</em> as a proxy, our dataset directly provides annotations of masking potential assessments from five specialists. We trained deep learning models on CSAW-M to estimate the masking level, and showed that the estimated masking is significantly more predictive of screening participants diagnosed with <em>interval</em> and <em>large invasive</em> cancers — without being explicitly trained for these tasks — than its breast density counterparts.</p> <p>Please find the paper corresponding to our work <a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2112.01330" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">here</a> and the GitHub repo <a href="https://github.com/yueliukth/CSAW-M">here</a>.</p></div><div><hr></div><div><p><b>CSAW-M Research Use License</b></p><p><b>Please read carefully all the terms and conditions of the <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1AwPjQnzfEIOiXlDSvkmLLhK5YEKiNaIG/view?usp=sharing">CSAW-M Research Use License</a>.</b><br></p></div><div><ol> </ol></div><div><div><hr></div><div><b>How to access the dataset</b>:<br></div></div><div><p>If you want to get access to the data, please use the "Request access to files" option above (currently, non-Swedish researchers need to have a general <a href="https://figshare.com/account/register">figshare account</a> to be able to to request access).
