CT Image Limit Increased to 15,000 Participants

NLST by CDAS Administrator

Each NLST project may now receive CT images from up to 15,000 participants (of the investigator’s choice).

Investigators are encouraged to consider taking fewer than 15,000, because:

  1. Many applications do not need that many.
  2. The maximum total data size for 15,000 people is very high (8 terabytes).
  3. The number of available screen-detected lung cancer cases (~600) and benign nodule cases (~9000) is limited.
