Abstract

We introduce Rad-ReStruct, a new benchmark dataset that provides fine-grained, hierarchically ordered annotations in the form of structured reports for X-Ray images. Our dataset provides structured labels for the images in the IU-XRay dataset available on OpenI. We model the structured reporting task as hierarchical visual question answering (VQA) and propose hi-VQA, a novel method that considers prior context in the form of previously asked questions and answers for populating a structured radiology report. The repository includes the structured reports as well as the list of questions to fill this report for every image.
