MedICaT

MedICaT is a dataset of medical images, captions, subfigure-subcaption annotations, and inline textual references. Instructions for access are provided here.

Figures and captions are extracted from open access articles in PubMed Central and corresponding reference text is derived from S2ORC.

The dataset consists of:

  • 217,060 figures from 131,410 open access papers
  • 7507 subcaption and subfigure annotations for 2069 compound figures
  • Inline references for ~25K figures in the ROCO dataset

A sample of the data is available in sample/.
