The datasets
Every dataset of the corpus, by what it is. Choose a task, a kind of image, a region: a card opens the dataset, its results, its source, its licence and its images.
Every dataset 415
7725 test cases in 415 datasets. Each picture is the middle slice of the first test case, with the annotations results are checked against in colour; from a dataset's images, Next walks on through every dataset.
What results are checked against. by experts drawn or placed by people. by a program, verified by people found by a program, then checked. by a program the output of a program: a weaker check, and unfair to a method that relies on the same program. a known deformation two images aligned by construction, one of them deformed by a known smooth transform: exact, but on a deformation no body made. as released by a challenge, origin not documented.
Looked at for registration: 1616 public datasets, each with why it is in or out
Every public dataset found that could check a registration, 1616 so far. A dataset enters the main leaderboards when people drew, placed or verified its annotations, when it can be downloaded without a private agreement, and when no other dataset here already holds its images. Each is sorted, with its reason: to build (priority 1 for those that fill a gap of the corpus), waits for a tool (2D, 2D to 3D, video, meshes, images too large to read whole), truth to make, needs an account or a request, or left out.

The training set's geometric augmentations move CT, psCBCT and masks together and are not saved, so no CT-to-CBCT displacement exists: the truth would be a known warp drawn by the corpus (synthetic). The patients are the corpus's LCTSC (its draw pairs all 60, 40 of them in its test and development pairs) and the CBCT is simulated, so it ranks apart; real thorax CBCT/CT with people's points is L2R_ThoraxCBCT. | Synthetic CBCT; whether the geometric transforms are saved is unverified. | known warp: keep or re-run the published augmentation to get exact CT-CBCT displacement truth |

A building's adjusted centroid in both images gives point pairs drawn by people on both, but the sUAS files are large (median 2.1 GB, up to 18 GB), so the build waits for the large-image path; whether a non-rigid residual is left after the corpus's alignment must be measured. | Gigapixel UAS orthomosaics are a real out-of-core case; cross-source (UAS vs satellite vs crewed) views of the same building give multi-sensor correspondences. | Use adjusted polygon corners of the same building_id in two orthomosaics as point pairs; check 10 orthomosaic pairs by a second annotator |

Programs that can make a truth
Where a dataset has no ground truth, or a weak one: segmenters, landmark and keypoint finders, annotation tools, simulators. A truth made by a segmenter is a weaker check, and it favours a method that uses the same program.

| SuperPoint / SuperGlue (Magic Leap) | 2D keypoints and matches | 'ACADEMIC OR NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION NONCOMMERCIAL RESEARCH USE ONLY' (as stated on Hugging Face ETH-CVG/lightglue_superpoint, implied by SuperPoint)non-commercial | Licence trap: Hugging Face transformers ports (magic-leap-community/superpoint, lightglue_superpoint) inherit it. |
| SuPreM / AbdomenAtlas models (JHU) | Abdominal organ and tumour labels on CT (25+ classes, pretrained backbones) | GitHub LICENSE: 'openly licensed via CC BY-NC-ND' (both SuPreM and AbdomenAtlas repos); Hugging Face MrGiovanni/SuPreM card says apache-2.0ask | Licence trap: the two pages conflict; treat as non-commercial no-derivatives until JHU confirms. |

CoW bifurcations make natural landmarks for brain CTA/MRA pairs. |
| TorchIO RandomElasticDeformation | Random smooth B-spline warps applied to a real 3D image and its labels: exact known displacement | code Apache-2.0open | Synthetic truth only tests what the warp model can produce; mix with real pairs. |
