BUS-BRA: A Breast Ultrasound Dataset for Assessing Computer-aided Diagnosis Systems

The BUS-BRA Dataset is a publicly available dataset of anonymized breast ultrasound (BUS) images of 1,064 patients that underwent routinary breast studies. The BUS dataset contains biopsy-proven tumor cases and BI-RADS annotations in categories 2, 3, 4, and 5. In addition, the dataset also contains ground truth delineations that divide the BUS images into tumoral and normal regions. A full description of the BUS-BRA dataset can be found in the following article: Wilfrido Gómez-Flores, Maria Julia Gregorio-Calas, and Wagner Coelho de Albuquerque Pereira, "BUS-BRA: A Breast Ultrasound Dataset for Assessing Computer-aided Diagnosis Systems," Medical Physics, 2023.

The Program of Biomedical Engineering of the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (PEB/COPPE-UFRJ, Brazil) has a copyright on the data and is the principal distributor of the BUS-BRA Dataset. In addition, the Centro de Investigación y de Estudios Avanzados (Cinvestav, Mexico) is involved in an ongoing effort to develop this dataset to aid research efforts in developing, testing, and evaluating algorithms for breast ultrasound analysis.
