Documentation

The Scottish Medical Imaging (SMI) Service has created a database of deidentified images (for example CT Scans, MRIs) that can be used by researchers who require access to clinical images and metadata for their approved research. This new national resource will be used to provision de-identified images and associated report data to researchers which, if required, may be linked to other available de-identified datasets
