Hello everyone,
\nI should mention that I don’t have much experience with medical images in general.
\nWhile analyzing the dataset, I encountered a few unusual annotations that I’d like to get some clarification on:
\nIn one series, there is a single annotation that seems slightly misaligned to the left and doesn’t appear to correspond to anything specific:
\nDetails: series_id: 4147986695, instance_number: 1, condition: Spinal Canal Stenosis, level: L1/L2, coordinates: (161.77, 270.51)
\n
In another series, an annotation is placed in the upper left corner:
\nDetails: series_id: 2231471633, instance_number: 9, condition: Spinal Canal Stenosis, level: L1/L2, coordinates: (5.0, 5.0)

This placement seems particularly strange.
\nAdditionally, I have noticed that in some series, there are only 1, 2, 3, or 4 annotations out of 5 for conditions such as Spinal Canal Stenosis, even though it seems that all relevant structures are clearly visible. I’m curious to know why some conditions have fewer annotations than others and if this variation is intentional. Furthermore, could someone explain what these annotations generally correspond to? I’m not sure I fully understand. It seems odd to me that some series have fewer annotations even when the structures appear clearly visible.
\nCould anyone clarify whether these annotations are accurate and intentional, or if they might be errors? Any insights or confirmation from the community or the organizers would be greatly appreciated.
\nThank you for your help!
