Data

Real-World Imaging Data

Leverage de-identified patient imaging data to accelerate algorithm development, training, validation and related medical research efforts.

Enabling smarter insights

Our imaging data platform delivers high-quality, de-identified imaging datasets enriched with comprehensive tagging, metadata, radiology reports and DICOM studies. This allows faster development, drives innovation across clinical and research workflows and provides more accessible and reliable resources for advancing medical research.

Data at scale

Optum has addressed longstanding imaging data challenges by:

  • Streamlining access, retrieval and viewing, eliminating the historical fragmentation of imaging data
  • Enabling large-scale data linkage and de-identification, solving linkage with other datasets while preserving data utility
  • Delivering broad, unbiased datasets that were previously difficult to obtain, supporting more complete and representative insights

The unique Optum position

Access more than 250 million unique de-identified imaging studies spanning all major modalities, including CT, MR, ultrasound and more. This diverse dataset represents broad demographic coverage and includes populations that are often hard to reach, supporting research in high-demand focus areas.

Key benefits

Imaging data includes pixel data, metadata, and diagnostic text reports from multiple modalities.

Insight ready

Diverse dataset with advanced tagging for complex research initiatives.

Fully connected data

Each DICOM is linked to its corresponding radiology report and metadata, ensuring complete, well-structured records that reduce data engineering effort and accelerate innovation.

Longitudinal clarity

Imaging is the missing piece in creating true longitudinal datasets. With the availability of linking data with other data elements of patient records, researchers gain a more complete and accurate view to support deeper, more impactful research.
