  <!-- Motivation for the creation of this dataset. -->
71
- Kidney diseases can be challenging to detect, while identification or diagnosis is crucial for treatment.
72
- This dataset is intended to develop AI and machine learning algorithms for enhanced kidney disease recognition.

73
+ The Kidney-CT-Abnormality dataset is curated with the express purpose of facilitating the development of advanced artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning algorithms aimed at enhancing the recognition and diagnostic accuracy of kidney diseases.

  ## Bias, Risks, and Limitations
105
 
106
  <!-- This section is meant to convey both technical and sociotechnical limitations. -->
107
+ The dataset only include abnormality label, with no further implication of specific diseases. This can limit the algorithms diagnostic specificity.
108
+ Moreover, the collected data can have potential bias. For instance, the CT scans might be generated from specific demographics, which can introduce bias (skewing the representation and applicability of the data).
