## Dataset description
This dataset includes 82 abdominal contrast-enhanced 3D CT scans from 80 subjects, acquired ~70 seconds after intravenous contrast injection in the portal-venous phase. Pancreas segmentations were performed manually slice-by-slice by a medical student and verified by an experienced radiologist. The scans were obtained on Philips and Siemens MDCT scanners.

**Number of CT volumes**: 80
