+**Number of CT volumes**: 127
+
+**Contrast**: Unenhanced whole-body CT and contrast-enhanced abdomen and thorax CT (iodine-based contrast agent)
+
+**CT body coverage**: Whole-body (head to knee) and contrast-enhanced regions (corpus mandibulae to pelvis)

+## Note
+Since the original host page (https://visceral.eu/benchmarks/anatomy3-open/) is no longer accessible, we have obtained permission from the original authors and affiliated institutions and plan to re-release the VISCERAL dataset in CADS, including its original images and annotations. We are currently in the process of obtaining renewed ethics approval, and the dataset will be made publicly available once approved.
