| contents | Reported chest CT segmentation performance can be strongly inflated when train and test partitions mix slices from the same study. We present CTSCAN, a reproducible multi-source chest CT benchmark and research stack designed to measure what survives under patient-disjoint evaluation. The current four-class artifact aggregates 89 cases from PleThora, MedSeg SIRM, and LongCIU, and we show that the original slice-PNG workflow induces near-complete case reuse across train, validation, and test. Using the playground environment, we run a multi-seed protocol sweep with the same FPN plus EfficientNet-B0 control configuration under slice-mixed and case-disjoint evaluation. Across 3 seeds and 12 epochs per seed, the slice-mixed protocol reaches 0.6665 foreground Dice and 0.5031 foreground IoU, whereas the case-disjoint protocol reaches 0.2066 Dice and 0.1181 IoU. Removing patient reuse therefore reduces foreground Dice by 0.4599 absolute (69.00% relative) and foreground IoU by 0.3850 absolute (76.52% relative). CTSCAN packages the corrected benchmark with deterministic split manifests, explicit weak-supervision controls, a scripted multi-seed protocol sweep, and reproducible figure generation, providing a reusable basis for patient-disjoint chest CT evaluation. |
