abstract: 'The imcdatasets package provides access to publicly available IMC datasets.
  IMC is a technology that enables measurement of > 40 proteins from tissue sections.
  The generated images can be segmented to extract single cell data. Datasets typically
  consist of three elements: a SingleCellExperiment object containing single cell
  data, a CytoImageList object containing multichannel images and a CytoImageList
  object containing the cell masks that were used to extract the single cell data
  from the images.'
