== Harvard Catalyst Medical Informatics group Meeting Minutes September 27, 2011 ==

In attendance:
* Bill Wang
* Chris Herrick
* David Wang
* Shawn Murphy
* Randy Gollub
* Darren Sack
* Jayashree Kalpathy
* Nandan Patibandla
* Valerie Humblet (phone)

=== mi2b2 software/hardware update ===
* At BWH the production version of mi2b2 is still up and running. Bill is working with Steve and Ron on their project. There are still a couple of issues during the download and the C-find that are in the process of being resolved.
* Dave talked about the design of the different tabs and what he plans to improve to make them as user friendly as possible. It is important for the user to be able to follow the whole process and in case of problem to be able to pinpoint where and when it happens.

===Baby brain project===
* Valerie has identified 70 normal studies among the 1 week-old babies from CHB. As soon as mi2b2 at CHB is ready, we will start a search with these MRN.

===Additional projects===
* Carotid project at BWH (Valerie and Todd Perlstein). Valerie will do the RPDR query to identify the cohort of patient. We need to decide the path where mi2b2 will load the images. We want to test how the decompression of US images will work. It is also important to know if we need to use the mi2b2 viewer or if we will use the US software to analyze the images.

===Manuscript for JDI===
* Randy sent a first draft to Shawn that he will organize to best fit the [http://www.springer.com/medicine/radiology/journal/10278 JDI requirements].

=Medical Imaging Informatics Bench to Bedside (mi2b2) =
<br>This Medical Imaging Informatics project was funded by an Administrative Supplement to Harvard Catalyst through the federal stimulus package aka ARRA. The project will enable clinical imaging data to be used, with appropriate human subject and institutional protections, for secondary research purposes.
|[[image:ARRA.png|thumb|px=250|Go to the [http://www.recovery.gov ARRA website]]]
|}

=Mission Statement=

To facilitate access to and use of the extensive collection of valuable medical images obtained during clinical care in a manner that does not negatively impact clinical care, enhances oversight of access and is in compliance with all local and national regulatory requirements. The target audiences for this project are clinical translational scientists (Radiologists and other physicians), basic scientists, and medical image analysis algorithm developers.

=Key Personnel and Resources=

Our hospitals are international leaders in the development and deployment of new and advanced biomedical imaging technologies (MRI, high speed CT, ultrasound, PET and others) for clinical practice. Furthermore, the current practice of excellent medical care includes extensive use of diagnostic and prognostic medical imaging using standardized image acquisition methods. The Picture Archive and Communication Systems (PACS) within each of the Departments of Radiology in our participating hospitals (Massachusetts General Hospital, Brigham and Women’s Hospital, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, and Children’s Hospital Boston) contain a wealth of medical images that equal or exceed the quality of clinical research imaging data, and greatly exceed its volume in terms of the number of patients and disease types.

This project uses software that is free and open source from currently funded government projects. This software includes the i2b2 (Informatics for Integrating Biology & the Bedside), a National Center for Biomedical Computing suite of open source software tools that extract and integrate data from of the electronic medical records, laboratory data, billing information systems and genomic data. It also includes XNAT (http://xnat.org/) software that is supported by NIH through the National Center for Research Resources (NCRR) sponsored Biomedical Informatics Research Network (BIRN) initiative and NA-MIC.

= Human Subject's Protection Training =
All project personnel who access the medical imaging data for this effort must secure appropriate IRB approval. If you haven't already done it, take the CITI human subject's protection training course (https://www.citiprogram.org/) and then have your site i2b2 PI add you to their i2b2 IRB development protocol.

= Mockup =

The mi2b2 installation at HMS hospitals will require careful attention to patient privacy and operational integrity of critical hospital information systems (e.g. clinical PACS). Therefore the software related to this project will be developed and tested extensively before any deployment in a clinical setting.

In order to develop the software in isolation, a [[CTSC:ARRA:Mockup|virtualized mockup]] is being set up that includes a PACS system with phantom and anonymized DICOM data, an instance of i2b2 software, and a test installation of XNAT.

== Harvard Translational Imaging Consortium Meeting Minutes September 13, 2011 ==

In attendance:

* Valerie Humblet
* Jeff Yap
* Laura Alice
* Randy Gollub
* Gordon Harris
* Charles Guttmann
* David Frank
* Clare Tempany
* Simon Warfield
* Annick van den Abbeele

'''1. Imaging program transition '''

* As of October 1st, members of the imaging consortium will work as consultant and will be paid by the hour for the consultations they do and the courses they teach. Randy (as program director) and Valerie (as program coordinator) will leave the program at the end of December. Tom Brady (Director of Radiology Research at Massachusetts General Hospital ) will take over the leadership of the imaging group.

<br>

'''2. Education'''

* The group decided not to renew the CME credit application for the course "Advanced Applications of Medical Imaging'''. Valerie will work both the Harvard Catalyst education team to see if they have any interest in having it transfer to them.
* The group will not offer his usual imaging courses (advanced and basics) this fall. They will work with the new management to see what direction to follow.
* MIT IAP: Randy put together a proposal for a non-credit offering for MIT’s Independent Activity Period 2012: Medical Imaging – seeing what makes you sick . She will be the course director and it will be sponsored by HST. She asked for suggestions for speakers. Annick suggested to contact [http://ki.mit.edu/ the Koch Institute] at MIT. She mentioned Tyler Jacks, the Director of the Institute, matt Vander Leiden (personalized medicine) and Sangeeta Bhatia (nanoparticles). Clare suggested Nathalie Agar from the BWH Neurosurgery Department. She does tissue characterization and tumor margin through mass spectroscopy. Charles offered to do a session on MS with Simon who would to a lecture more technical on the subject.

<br>

'''3. ACRIN and RSNA meetings'''

* Harvard Catalyst set our budget travel for the entire group, for both meetings at $2000.
** ACRIN: Jeff will be the only going to the meeting, as a guest speaker his expenses will be covered by ACRIN.
** RSNA: Gordon, Clare, Annick and Randy will go but have other sources of funding. Jeff will go Monday to Friday and needs funding. Valerie will go Saturday to either Tuesday or Friday depending on whether or not she needs to give a hand for the Slicer booth. She will need funding, some part might be cover by NA-MIC. Simon is given a talk on Wednesday and will need funding.

'''4. FDA guidance on standards for clinical trials imaging endpoint '''

* There are 4 to 5 weeks left for public comments on the draft issued by the FDA. For now the recommendations are for phase 3 trials but they may be too restrictive for use in phases 1 and 2. For example they recommend only FDA approved equipment and software which is not good for research at the academic institutions, it will only be viable for the big pharma who can spend a lot of money.

<br>

'''5. mi2b2 update'''

* The production version is working at BWH. Training material is being developed. A no cast extension has been accepted and Partners agreed to support funding of the IT team.
