This webpage introduces the New Mexico Decedent Image Database (NMDID).
This dataset, the New Mexico Decedent Image Database (NMDID), includes whole body CT scans of over 15,000 New Mexicans who died between 2010-2017. Each individual is represented by approximately 10,000 images. Slice thickness is 1 mm with 0.5 mm overlap. CTs can be viewed using any DICOM viewer, and include normal and thin slice reconstructions for bone, lung, and brain. 3D reconstructions are possible with this data, depending on what viewer you use. Metadata includes almost 60 variables about the individuals’ demography, life and death. These data are accessible for research separately from the CT scans. The included data dictionary provides definitions. The NMDID is a free database that is comprised of high-resolution full body CT scans with associated demographic, lifestyle and health data.
