+ ## Intended use

+
85
+ A test harness for checking how an imaging AI model behaves at a new site, not a
86
+ leaderboard. The ground-truth masks are independent of any one model, so you can train
87
+ your own classifiers or segmenters (AAA, enlarged kidneys, organ volumes) on one part of the
88
+ data, apply them to another, and see how shifts in scanners, slice thickness, phase, age or
89
+ case mix, or hidden subgroups, change their results. The aim is to show the difference
90
+ between a model's results on clean development data and on a site's own data, not to
91
+ build the best model.
