# IvyGAP-Radiomics (SRI-atlas subset)
Multi-parametric brain-MRI **glioblastoma (GBM)** segmentation dataset: 4 co-registered,
skull-stripped MRI sequences per subject with **expert tumor sub-compartment masks** from
**two independent institutions**, plus precomputed radiomic features. From the TCIA
*Analysis Result* collection **IvyGAP-Radiomics** (Pati et al., 2020).
## ⚠️ Scope — this is a preprocessed subset of the full Ivy GAP project
"IvyGAP-Radiomics" is **not** the complete Ivy Glioblastoma Atlas Project (Ivy GAP). It is a
derived analysis result containing only the **pre-operative** scans, **skull-stripped** and
**co-registered to the SRI24 atlas**, converted to NIfTI, with expert tumor masks and radiomic
features added. It does **not** include the original DICOM imaging (~140 GB), histology (ISH),
or gene-expression / genomic data of the parent Ivy GAP collection. Only the **SRI-atlas**
package is mirrored here (the alternate **MNI-atlas / CWRU-only** package is not included).
## 🔴 Cross-dataset overlap with BraTS (evaluation-integrity hazard)
Pre-operative IvyGAP data is **included in the BraTS challenge training set** (together with
TCGA-GBM, TCGA-LGG, CPTAC-GBM), and these masks were produced with the **BraTS preprocessing
pipeline** (SRI24 atlas, skull-strip) and follow the **BraTS labeling convention**. **Do not**
benchmark these subjects against any BraTS-trained model, or alongside `Angelou0516/brats2023-*`,
without treating the results as non-held-out — there is likely train/test leakage. Subjects are
identified by Ivy GAP IDs (`W1``W55`); there is **no published BraTS-ID cross-reference column**,
so any mapping to BraTS subjects must be done externally via the Ivy GAP → BraTS name tables.
## Two expert raters — no single gold standard (by design)
The dataset's purpose is **inter-rater reproducibility**. Each tumor was segmented independently
by board-certified neuroradiologists at **two institutions**:
- **UPenn** (Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania) — **34 subjects**
- **CWRU** (Case Western Reserve University) — **31 subjects**
**31 subjects are paired** (annotated by both). The paper anoints **neither** rater as "the"
ground truth — both are equally-valid expert annotations. Both mask sets are provided here.
For a single-GT workflow, the recommended default is **UPenn** (broader coverage: 34 vs 31).
Subjects without a CWRU mask: **W6, W30, W54**.
## Labels (BraTS convention)
| value | sub-compartment |
|------:|-----------------|
| 0 | background |
| 1 | NCR/NET — necrotic & non-enhancing tumor core |
| 2 | ED — peritumoral edema / invaded tissue |
| 4 | ET — enhancing tumor |
Composite regions: **TC** (tumor core) = {1,4}; **WT** (whole tumor) = {1,2,4}; **ET** = {4}.
Mask dtypes as released: UPenn `uint16`, CWRU `float32` — both encode the integer labels above
(content is preserved byte-for-byte; cast to integer when loading).
## Geometry
All volumes are **240 × 240 × 155 @ 1.0 mm isotropic** in **SRI24** space, skull-stripped,
LPS orientation. One pre-operative study per subject.

## `ivygap_metadata.csv`
Per-subject metadata keyed by `Patient` (W-ID). Columns include `Included_Upenn`,
`Included_CWRU`, `4_Modalities` (inclusion flags), `Age`, `gender`, `Histopathology`,
`location`, `EoR` (extent of resection), `Surgery`, `survival_days`, `Molecular_subtype`,
`IDH1`, `1p19q_deletion`, `MGMT`/`MGMT PCR`, `EGFR`/`EGFR vIII`, `PTEN`, `KPS(initial)`,
time-to-progression / last-follow-up, and cause of death. (The CSV also lists a few subjects
that lack 4-modality imaging and are therefore **not** present under `data/`.)
