The article introduces two complementary datasets intended for the development of data-driven solutions for cranial implant design, which remains to be a time-consuming and laborious task in current clinical routine of cranioplasty. The two datasets, referred to as the SkullBreak and SkullFix in this article, are both adapted from a public head CT collection (http://headctstudy.qure.

Background: No large dataset-derived standard has been established for normal or pathologic human cerebral ventricular and cranial vault volumes. Automated volumetric measurements could be used to assist in diagnosis and follow-up of hydrocephalus or craniofacial syndromes. In this work, we use deep learning algorithms to measure ventricular and cranial vault volumes in a large dataset of head computed tomography (CT) scans.

Background: Non-contrast head CT scan is the current standard for initial imaging of patients with head trauma or stroke symptoms. We aimed to develop and validate a set of deep learning algorithms for automated detection of the following key findings from these scans: intracranial haemorrhage and its types (ie, intraparenchymal, intraventricular, subdural, extradural, and subarachnoid); calvarial fractures; midline shift; and mass effect.

Methods: We retrospectively collected a dataset containing 313 318 head CT scans together with their clinical reports from around 20 centres in India between Jan 1, 2011, and June 1, 2017.
