CVC-ClinicDB is a database of frames extracted from colonoscopy videos. The dataset contains several examples of polyp frames & corresponding ground truth for them. The Ground Truth images consists of a mask corresponding to the region covered by the polyp in the image.

CVC-ClinicDB database consists of two different types of images:

• Original images: original/frame_number.tiff
• Polyp mask: ground truth/frame_number.tiff

The correspondence between the number of frame and the video sequence is shown in the below table:

CVC-ClinicDB was the official database used in the training stages of MICCAI 2015 Sub-Challenge on Automatic Polyp Detection Challenge in Colonoscopy Videos.
