    "2608636": "> Hi All Kagglers,\n>    It's been great watching the progress these last few weeks. Seeing a few things in the competition and also following the discussion carefully we decided that it makes sense to give some more information about the two hidden datasets i.e. the Public and Private test datasets: \n> \n> Public Test: \n> Continuous 3D part of a whole human kidney imaged with HiP-CT - Originally scanned at 25.14um/voxel and binned to 50.28um/voxel (bin x2) before segmentation. \n> \n> Private Test: \n> Continuous 3D part of a whole human kidney imaged with HiP-CT - Originally scanned at 15.77um/voxel binned to 63.08um/voxel (bin x4) before segmentation. \n> \n> \n> Neither of these kidneys are different parts of ones already in the public dataset, i.e. they are physically different samples. The scanning and reconstruction procedures follow the method described in the original HiP-CT [Methods paper](https://www.nature.com/articles/s41592-021-01317-x) (you should read this paper for background), and the manual annotation process is the same as in the benchmark [review paper](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2311.13319.pdf).\n> \n> We provided the higher resolution 5.2um/voxel VOI, to give some example data of different resolutions as we thought this might be useful.\n\n> Hi All Kagglers,\n>    It's been great watching the progress these last few weeks.
