Volunteer waitlistVolunteer by tracing, labeling, and reviewing medical images for real-world research.
You will learn a narrow imaging task, work through real scans or photos, and submit annotations that researchers can review and use.

What volunteering looks like in practice.
This is structured image work, not vague volunteering. You learn a narrow task, repeat it across real images, and send the output to researchers who review and approve it.
- 01You learn one clear task before touching real images.
Training starts with examples and a narrow rubric like tracing a border, marking a structure, or counting a visible feature.
- 02You repeat that task across a batch of images.
The work is intentionally specific. You are not diagnosing patients. You are labeling the same kind of visual information consistently.
- 03Researchers review what you submit and keep final control.
Accepted annotations turn into real support for a lab, and anything unclear can be corrected or sent back for revision.
What volunteers actually do on images.
Most tasks are narrow, repetitive, and easy for a lab to verify. That is what makes the work useful and credible.

- Dermoscopy: Lesion boundary tracing
Trace the visible lesion edge so a reviewer can adjust the contour instead of starting from scratch.
- Retina: Fundus landmark marking
Mark vessels, the optic disc, and notable retinal patterns using the same labeling rules across each photo.
- Chest CT: Cross-sectional region review
Review slices and flag nodules, airways, or other candidate regions a lab should inspect more closely.
- Colonoscopy: Polyp candidate labeling
Label suspicious regions so researchers can move faster through large screening datasets.
- Pathology: Cell counting and tissue region marking
Count cells or mark tissue regions where consistency matters more than interpretation.
- OCT: Layer segmentation support
Trace retinal layer boundaries that are visually clear enough for an expert to validate quickly.
Image types you may work with.
These examples are here to make the work concrete. The main point is the task itself: tracing, marking, counting, and reviewing visible structures.

Volunteers trace lesion borders or mark visible pattern changes a reviewer can verify.

Volunteers mark vessels, the optic disc, and visible problem areas in each image.
Volunteers compare slices and flag lung regions or structures that deserve a closer pass.

Volunteers label possible polyps or other candidate regions for researcher review.

Volunteers count cells or outline tissue regions using a fixed rubric the lab can check quickly.

Volunteers trace visible retinal layers and structural boundaries in the scan.
