Kidney ultrasound (US) images are primarily employed for diagnosing different renal diseases. Among them, one is renal localization and detection, which can be carried out by segmenting the kidney US images. However, kidney segmentation from US images is challenging due to low contrast, speckle noise, fluid, variations in kidney shape, and modality artifacts. Moreover, well-annotated US datasets for renal segmentation and detection are scarce. This study aims to build a novel, well-annotated dataset containing 44,880 US images...
