MURA is a musculoskeletal radiographic dataset that includes 14,863 studies of 12,173 patients, totaling 40,561 multi-view radiographic images. Each image is categorized into one of seven standard types of upper extremity radiographic studies: elbow, finger, forearm, hand, humerus, shoulder, and wrist. From 2001 to 2012, radiologists at Stanford Hospital manually annotated these studies during clinical radiographic interpretations, classifying them as normal or abnormal. The test set includes additional annotations by six radiologists from Stanford Hospital, covering 207 musculoskeletal studies. These radiologists reviewed and labeled each study in the test set as normal or abnormal individually using the PACS system in a clinical reading room environment. The radiologists had an average of 8.83 years of experience, ranging from 2 to 25 years. Three of these radiologists were randomly selected to create a gold standard, defined as the majority vote of these radiologists' labels.
The MURA anomaly detection task is a binary classification task where the input is an upper extremity radiographic study (containing one or more views/images), and the expected output is a binary label y ∈ {0,1}, indicating whether the study is normal or abnormal. Additionally, the MURA dataset serves as an educational tool in medical imaging, helping medical students, radiology technologists, and other learners to better understand and master the radiographic features of the musculoskeletal system, enhancing their clinical skills and diagnostic capabilities.
