Abstract
Pituitary neuroendocrine tumors remain one of the most common intracranial tumors. While radiomic research related to pituitary tumors is progressing, public data sets for external validation remain scarce. We introduce an open dataset comprising high-resolution T1 contrast-enhanced MR scans of 136 patients with pituitary tumors, annotated for tumor segmentation and accompanied by clinical, radiological and pathological metadata. This diverse dataset captures variations in tumor size, location, and pathological activity, essential for understanding this complex condition. Expert annotations of both the tumor and adjacent carotid arteries ensure precise delineation, facilitating the development of automated segmentation algorithms. Our initiative addresses the need for standardized data in pituitary oncology, fosters collaboration and innovation, and enables the development and benchmarking of workflows that utilize pituitary radiomics for treatment planning and outcome prediction.
