&lt;div&gt; Back to [[Project Events]], [[AHM_2010]], [[Events]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
__NOTOC__&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Background==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
From January 4-8, 2010, the tenth project week for hands-on research and development activity in Image-Guided Therapy and Neuroscience applications will be hosted in Salt Lake City, Utah. Participant engange in open source programming using the [[NA-MIC-Kit|NA-MIC Kit]], algorithms, medical imaging sequence development, tracking experiments, and clinical applications. The main goal of this event is to further the translational research deliverables of the sponsoring centers ([http://www.na-mic.org NA-MIC], [http://www.ncigt.org NCIGT], [http://nac.spl.harvard.edu NAC], [http://catalyst.harvard.edu/home.html Harvard Catalyst], and [http://www.cimit.org CIMIT]) and their collaborators by identifying and solving programming problems during planned and ad hoc break-out sessions.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Active preparation for this conference begins with a kick-off teleconference. Invitations to this call are sent to members of the sponsoring communities, their collaborators, past attendees of the event, as well as any parties expressing an interest in working with these centers. The main goal of the initial teleconference is to gather information about which groups/projects would be active at the upcoming event to ensure that there were sufficient resources available to meet everyone's needs. Focused discussions about individual projects are conducted during several subsequent teleconferences and permits the hosts to finalize the project teams, consolidate any common components, and identify topics that should be discussed in break-out sessions. In the final days leading up to the meeting, all project teams are asked to complete a template page on the wiki describing the objectives and research plan for each project.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On the first day of the conference, each project team leader delivers a short presentation to introduce their topic and individual members of their team. These brief presentations serve to both familiarize other teams doing similar work about common problems or practical solutions, and to identify potential subsets of individuals who might benefit from collaborative work.  For the remainder of the conference, about 50% time is devoted to break-out discussions on topics of common interest to particular subsets and 50% to hands-on project work.  For hands-on project work, attendees are organized into 30-50 small teams comprised of 2-4 individuals with a mix of multi-disciplinary expertise.  To facilitate this work, a large room is setup with ample work tables, internet connection, and power access. This enables each computer software development-based team to gather on a table with their individual laptops, connect to the internet, download their software and data, and work on specific projects.  On the final day of the event, each project team summarizes their accomplishments in a closing presentation.&lt;br /&gt;

## Commit on each sandbox directory the code examples/snippets that represent our first guesses of appropriate methods. (Luis and Steve will help with this, as needed)&lt;br /&gt;
## Gather test images in any of the Data sharing resources we have (e.g. the BIRN). These ones don't have to be many. At least three different cases, so we can get an idea of the modality-specific characteristics of these images. Put the IDs of these data sets on the wiki page. (the participants must do this.)&lt;br /&gt;
## Setup nightly tests on a separate Dashboard, where we will run the methods that we are experimenting with. The test should post result images and computation time. (Zack)&lt;br /&gt;
# Please note that by the time we get to the project event, we should be trying to close off a project milestone rather than starting to work on one...&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;div&gt;=  Harvard Catalyst Medical Imaging Informatics ARRA Administrative Supplement=&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Medical Imaging Informatics Bench to Bedside (mi2b2) ==&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;This Medical Imaging Informatics project was funded by an Administrative Supplement to the 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.&lt;br /&gt;
|[[image:ARRA.png|thumb|px=250|Go to the [http://www.recovery.gov ARRA website]]]&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Mission Statement=&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Key Personnel and Resources=&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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 (although old tried and true technologies are also extensively used).  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.    &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This project uses software that is free and open source from currently funded government projects.  This software includes the i2b2 (Informatics for Integrating Biology &amp;amp; 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.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Medical Imaging Informatics Bench to Bedside (mi2b2) ==&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;This Medical Imaging Informatics project was funded by an Administrative Supplement to the 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.&lt;br /&gt;
|[[image:ARRA.png|thumb|px=250|Go to the [http://www.recovery.gov ARRA website]]]&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Mission Statement=&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Key Personnel and Resources=&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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 (although old tried and true technologies are also extensively used).  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.    &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This project uses software that is free and open source from currently funded government projects.  This software includes the i2b2 (Informatics for Integrating Biology &amp;amp; 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.&lt;br /&gt;

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.    &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This project uses software that is free and open source from currently funded government projects.  This software includes the i2b2 (Informatics for Integrating Biology &amp;amp; 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.&lt;br /&gt;

== Medical Imaging Informatics Bench to Bedside (mi2b2) ==&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;This Medical Imaging Informatics project was funded by an Administrative Supplement to the 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.&lt;br /&gt;

=Mission Statement=&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Medical Imaging Informatics Bench to Bedside (mi2b2) ==&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;This Medical Imaging Informatics project was funded by an Administrative Supplement to the 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.&lt;br /&gt;
|[[image:ARRA.png|thumb|px=250|Go to the [http://www.recovery.gov ARRA website]]]&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Mission Statement=&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Key Personnel and Resources=&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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 (although old tried and true technologies are also extensively used).  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.    &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This project uses software that is free and open source from currently funded government projects.  This software includes the i2b2 (Informatics for Integrating Biology &amp;amp; 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.&lt;br /&gt;

== Medical Imaging Informatics Bench to Bedside (mi2b2) ==&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;This Medical Imaging Informatics project was funded by an Administrative Supplement to the 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.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=Mission Statement=&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Key Personnel and Resources=&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
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 (although old tried and true technologies are also extensively used).  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.    &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This project uses software that is free and open source from currently funded government projects.  This software includes the i2b2 (Informatics for Integrating Biology &amp;amp; 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.&lt;br /&gt;

==Summary==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The FIRST JOINT PROJECT WEEK (and the nineth NA-MIC Project event) was held during June 22-26, 2009 in Boston, at MIT and Brigham and Women's Hospital. It recorded 125+ registered attendees.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some (many!) pictures from the event are available [http://picasaweb.google.com/tokjun/ProjectWeek2009?authkey=Gv1sRgCOmyn6fPrcSTwwE&amp;amp;feat=directlink here]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Introduction to the FIRST JOINT PROJECT WEEK==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We are pleased to announce the FIRST JOINT PROJECT WEEK of hands-on research and development activity for Image-Guided Therapy and Neuroscience applications.  Participants will engage in open source programming using the [[NA-MIC-Kit|NA-MIC Kit]], algorithm design, medical imaging sequence development, tracking experiments, and clinical application. The main goal of this event is to move forward the translational research deliverables of the sponsoring centers and their collaborators. Active and potential collaborators are encouraged and welcome to attend this event. This event will be set up to maximize informal interaction between participants.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Active preparation begins on Thursday, April 16th at 3pm ET, with a kick-off teleconference.  Invitations to this call will be sent to members of the sponsoring communities, their collaborators, past attendees of the event, as well as any parties who have expressed an interest in working with these centers. The main goal of the kick-off call is to get an idea of which groups/projects will be active at the upcoming event, and to ensure that there is sufficient coverage for all. Subsequent teleconferences will allow for more focused discussions on individual projects and allow the hosts to finalize the project teams, consolidate any common components, and identify topics that should be discussed in breakout sessions. In the final days leading upto the meeting, all project teams will be asked to fill in a template page on this wiki that describes the objectives and plan of their projects.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The event itself will start off with a short presentation by each project team, driven using their previously created description, and will help all participants get acquainted with others who are doing similar work. In the rest of the week, about half the time will be spent in breakout discussions on topics of common interest of subsets of the attendees, and the other half will be spent in project teams, doing hands-on project work.  The hands-on activities will be done in 30-50 small teams of size 2-4, each with a mix of multi-disciplinary expertise.  To facilitate this work, a large room at MIT will be setup with several tables, with internet and power access, and each computer software development based team will gather on a table with their individual laptops, connect to the internet to download their software and data, and be able to work on their projects.  Teams working on projects that require the use of medical devices will proceed to Brigham and Women's Hospital and carry out their experiments there. On the last day of the event, a closing presentation session will be held in which each project team will present a summary of what they accomplished during the week.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This event is part of the translational research efforts of [http://www.na-mic.org NA-MIC], [http://www.ncigt.org NCIGT], [http://nac.spl.harvard.edu/ NAC], [http://catalyst.harvard.edu/home.html Harvard Catalyst], and [http://www.cimit.org CIMIT].  It is an expansion of the NA-MIC Summer Project Week that has been held annually since 2005. It will be held every summer at MIT and Brigham and Womens Hospital in Boston, typically during the last full week of June, and in Salt Lake City in the winter, typically during the second week of January.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A summary of all past NA-MIC Project Events that this FIRST JOINT EVENT is based on is available [[Project_Events#Past|here]].&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
# Please make sure that you are on the http://public.kitware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/na-mic-project-week mailing list&lt;br /&gt;
# Join the kickoff TCON on April 16, 3pm ET.&lt;br /&gt;
# [[Engineering:TCON_2009|June 18 TCON]] at 3pm ET to tie loose ends.  Anyone with un-addressed questions should call.&lt;br /&gt;
# By 3pm ET on June 11, 2009: [[Project_Week/Template|Complete a templated wiki page for your project]]. Please do not edit the template page itself, but create a new page for your project and cut-and-paste the text from this template page.  If you have questions, please send an email to tkapur at bwh.harvard.edu.&lt;br /&gt;
# By 3pm on June 18, 2009: Create a directory for each project on the [[Engineering:SandBox|NAMIC Sandbox]] (Zack)&lt;br /&gt;
## Commit on each sandbox directory the code examples/snippets that represent our first guesses of appropriate methods. (Luis and Steve will help with this, as needed)&lt;br /&gt;
## Gather test images in any of the Data sharing resources we have (e.g. the BIRN). These ones don't have to be many. At least three different cases, so we can get an idea of the modality-specific characteristics of these images. Put the IDs of these data sets on the wiki page. (the participants must do this.)&lt;br /&gt;
## Setup nightly tests on a separate Dashboard, where we will run the methods that we are experimenting with. The test should post result images and computation time. (Zack)&lt;br /&gt;
# Please note that by the time we get to the project event, we should be trying to close off a project milestone rather than starting to work on one...&lt;br /&gt;
# People doing Slicer related projects should come to project week with slicer built on your laptop.&lt;br /&gt;
## Projects to develop extension modules should work with the [http://viewvc.slicer.org/viewcvs.cgi/branches/Slicer-3-4/#dirlist Slicer-3-4 branch] (new code should not be checked into the branch).&lt;br /&gt;
## Projects to modify core behavior of slicer should be done on the [http://viewvc.slicer.org/viewcvs.cgi/trunk/ trunk].&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Introduction to the FIRST JOINT PROJECT WEEK==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We are pleased to announce the FIRST JOINT PROJECT WEEK of hands-on research and development activity for Image-Guided Therapy and Neuroscience applications.  Participants will engage in open source programming using the [[NA-MIC-Kit|NA-MIC Kit]], algorithm design, medical imaging sequence development, tracking experiments, and clinical application. The main goal of this event is to move forward the translational research deliverables of the sponsoring centers and their collaborators. Active and potential collaborators are encouraged and welcome to attend this event. This event will be set up to maximize informal interaction between participants.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Active preparation will begin on''' Thursday, April 16th at 3pm ET''', with a kick-off teleconference.  Invitations to this call will be sent to members of the sponsoring communities, their collaborators, past attendees of the event, as well as any parties who have expressed an interest in working with these centers. The main goal of the kick-off call is to get an idea of which groups/projects will be active at the upcoming event, and to ensure that there is sufficient coverage for all. Subsequent teleconferences will allow for more focused discussions on individual projects and allow the hosts to finalize the project teams, consolidate any common components, and identify topics that should be discussed in breakout sessions. In the final days leading upto the meeting, all project teams will be asked to fill in a template page on this wiki that describes the objectives and plan of their projects.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The event itself will start off with a short presentation by each project team, driven using their previously created description, and will help all participants get acquainted with others who are doing similar work. In the rest of the week, about half the time will be spent in breakout discussions on topics of common interest of subsets of the attendees, and the other half will be spent in project teams, doing hands-on project work.  The hands-on activities will be done in 30-50 small teams of size 2-4, each with a mix of multi-disciplinary expertise.  To facilitate this work, a large room at MIT will be setup with several tables, with internet and power access, and each computer software development based team will gather on a table with their individual laptops, connect to the internet to download their software and data, and be able to work on their projects.  Teams working on projects that require the use of medical devices will proceed to Brigham and Women's Hospital and carry out their experiments there. On the last day of the event, a closing presentation session will be held in which each project team will present a summary of what they accomplished during the week.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This event is part of the translational research efforts of [http://www.na-mic.org NA-MIC], [http://www.ncigt.org NCIGT], [http://nac.spl.harvard.edu/ NAC], [http://catalyst.harvard.edu/home.html Harvard Catalyst], and [http://www.cimit.org CIMIT].  It is an expansion of the NA-MIC Summer Project Week that has been held annually since 2005. It will be held every summer at MIT and Brigham and Womens Hospital in Boston, typically during the last full week of June, and in Salt Lake City in the winter, typically during the second week of January.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A summary of all past NA-MIC Project Events that this FIRST JOINT EVENT is based on is available [[Project_Events#Past|here]].&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
# Please make sure that you are on the http://public.kitware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/na-mic-project-week mailing list&lt;br /&gt;
# Join the kickoff TCON on April 16, 3pm ET.&lt;br /&gt;
# [[Engineering:TCON_2009|June 18 TCON]] at 3pm ET to tie loose ends.  Anyone with un-addressed questions should call.&lt;br /&gt;
# By 3pm ET on June 11, 2009: [[Project_Week/Template|Complete a templated wiki page for your project]]. Please do not edit the template page itself, but create a new page for your project and cut-and-paste the text from this template page.  If you have questions, please send an email to tkapur at bwh.harvard.edu.&lt;br /&gt;
# By 3pm on June 18, 2009: Create a directory for each project on the [[Engineering:SandBox|NAMIC Sandbox]] (Zack)&lt;br /&gt;
## Commit on each sandbox directory the code examples/snippets that represent our first guesses of appropriate methods. (Luis and Steve will help with this, as needed)&lt;br /&gt;
## Gather test images in any of the Data sharing resources we have (e.g. the BIRN). These ones don't have to be many. At least three different cases, so we can get an idea of the modality-specific characteristics of these images. Put the IDs of these data sets on the wiki page. (the participants must do this.)&lt;br /&gt;
## Setup nightly tests on a separate Dashboard, where we will run the methods that we are experimenting with. The test should post result images and computation time. (Zack)&lt;br /&gt;
# Please note that by the time we get to the project event, we should be trying to close off a project milestone rather than starting to work on one...&lt;br /&gt;
# People doing Slicer related projects should come to project week with slicer built on your laptop.&lt;br /&gt;
## Projects to develop extension modules should work with the [http://viewvc.slicer.org/viewcvs.cgi/branches/Slicer-3-4/#dirlist Slicer-3-4 branch] (new code should not be checked into the branch).&lt;br /&gt;
## Projects to modify core behavior of slicer should be done on the [http://viewvc.slicer.org/viewcvs.cgi/trunk/ trunk].&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Introduction to the FIRST JOINT PROJECT WEEK==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We are pleased to announce the FIRST JOINT PROJECT WEEK of hands-on research and development activity for Image-Guided Therapy and Neuroscience applications.  Participants will engage in open source programming using the [[NA-MIC-Kit|NA-MIC Kit]], algorithm design, medical imaging sequence development, tracking experiments, and clinical application. The main goal of this event is to move forward the translational research deliverables of the sponsoring centers and their collaborators. Active and potential collaborators are encouraged and welcome to attend this event. This event will be set up to maximize informal interaction between participants.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Active preparation will begin on''' Thursday, April 16th at 3pm ET''', with a kick-off teleconference.  Invitations to this call will be sent to members of the sponsoring communities, their collaborators, past attendees of the event, as well as any parties who have expressed an interest in working with these centers. The main goal of the kick-off call is to get an idea of which groups/projects will be active at the upcoming event, and to ensure that there is sufficient coverage for all. Subsequent teleconferences will allow for more focused discussions on individual projects and allow the hosts to finalize the project teams, consolidate any common components, and identify topics that should be discussed in breakout sessions. In the final days leading upto the meeting, all project teams will be asked to fill in a template page on this wiki that describes the objectives and plan of their projects.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The event itself will start off with a short presentation by each project team, driven using their previously created description, and will help all participants get acquainted with others who are doing similar work. In the rest of the week, about half the time will be spent in breakout discussions on topics of common interest of subsets of the attendees, and the other half will be spent in project teams, doing hands-on project work.  The hands-on activities will be done in 30-50 small teams of size 2-4, each with a mix of multi-disciplinary expertise.  To facilitate this work, a large room at MIT will be setup with several tables, with internet and power access, and each computer software development based team will gather on a table with their individual laptops, connect to the internet to download their software and data, and be able to work on their projects.  Teams working on projects that require the use of medical devices will proceed to Brigham and Women's Hospital and carry out their experiments there. On the last day of the event, a closing presentation session will be held in which each project team will present a summary of what they accomplished during the week.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This event is part of the translational research efforts of [http://www.na-mic.org NA-MIC], [http://www.ncigt.org NCIGT], [http://nac.spl.harvard.edu/ NAC], [http://catalyst.harvard.edu/home.html Harvard Catalyst], and [http://www.cimit.org CIMIT].  It is an expansion of the NA-MIC Summer Project Week that has been held annually since 2005. It will be held every summer at MIT and Brigham and Womens Hospital in Boston, typically during the last full week of June, and in Salt Lake City in the winter, typically during the second week of January.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A summary of all past NA-MIC Project Events that this FIRST JOINT EVENT is based on is available [[Project_Events#Past|here]].&lt;br /&gt;

== Preparation ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# Please make sure that you are on the http://public.kitware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/na-mic-project-week mailing list&lt;br /&gt;
# Join the kickoff TCON on April 16, 3pm ET.&lt;br /&gt;
# [[Engineering:TCON_2009|June 18 TCON]] at 3pm ET to tie loose ends.  Anyone with un-addressed questions should call.&lt;br /&gt;
# By 3pm ET on June 11, 2009: [[Project_Week/Template|Complete a templated wiki page for your project]]. Please do not edit the template page itself, but create a new page for your project and cut-and-paste the text from this template page.  If you have questions, please send an email to tkapur at bwh.harvard.edu.&lt;br /&gt;
# By 3pm on June 18, 2009: Create a directory for each project on the [[Engineering:SandBox|NAMIC Sandbox]] (Zack)&lt;br /&gt;
## Commit on each sandbox directory the code examples/snippets that represent our first guesses of appropriate methods. (Luis and Steve will help with this, as needed)&lt;br /&gt;
## Gather test images in any of the Data sharing resources we have (e.g. the BIRN). These ones don't have to be many. At least three different cases, so we can get an idea of the modality-specific characteristics of these images. Put the IDs of these data sets on the wiki page. (the participants must do this.)&lt;br /&gt;
## Setup nightly tests on a separate Dashboard, where we will run the methods that we are experimenting with. The test should post result images and computation time. (Zack)&lt;br /&gt;
# Please note that by the time we get to the project event, we should be trying to close off a project milestone rather than starting to work on one...&lt;br /&gt;
# People doing Slicer related projects should come to project week with slicer built on your laptop.&lt;br /&gt;
## Projects to develop extension modules should work with the [http://viewvc.slicer.org/viewcvs.cgi/branches/Slicer-3-4/#dirlist Slicer-3-4 branch] (new code should not be checked into the branch).&lt;br /&gt;
## Projects to modify core behavior of slicer should be done on the [http://viewvc.slicer.org/viewcvs.cgi/trunk/ trunk].&lt;br /&gt;

= Overview =&lt;br /&gt;
The Harvard Catalyst Medical Imaging Informatics Bench to Bedside (mi2b2) Initiative is preparing to provide services for setting up imaging data management systems (IDMS) to support research and clinical efforts involving imaging for Harvard Catalyst affiliated investigators.   Two simultaneous (and potentially conflicting) priorities are to 1) provide optimal, customized hardware and software tools for each investigator/ laboratory and 2) to harmonized these solutions to allow for aggregation of the raw and derived medical imaging data for subsequent sharing beyond the investigator/ laboratory. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
XNAT has been identified as a potential software solution for providing the core functionalities of a Harvard Catalyst IDMS.&lt;br /&gt;
A typical IDMS service engagement will include the following steps:&lt;br /&gt;
*Requirement gathering&lt;br /&gt;
*Gap analysis&lt;br /&gt;
*Infrastructure setup&lt;br /&gt;
*Data modeling&lt;br /&gt;
*IDMS installation and setup&lt;br /&gt;
*Data loading&lt;br /&gt;
*Testing and evaluation&lt;br /&gt;
*Ongoing data entry, data loading/transfer, and system monitoring and maintenance&lt;br /&gt;
*System upgrade&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= mi2b2 Phases =&lt;br /&gt;
== Planning and Information Gathering ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The goals of current phase of the initiative are to:&lt;br /&gt;
#Gather concrete and specific requirements for imaging data transfer and management from a number of high-volume imaging projects led by Harvard Catalyst-affiliated investigators that are generating valuable derived image data with the intention to share that data beyond their own laboratory; &lt;br /&gt;
#Generate a list of overlapping requirements from these specific investigators; &lt;br /&gt;
#Prioritize the projects to determine next steps; &lt;br /&gt;
#Deploy a demo IDMS based on the default XNAT source code;&lt;br /&gt;
#Assess the effort required to extend XNAT code to support the features identified.&lt;br /&gt;

**Commitment of PI&lt;br /&gt;
**Feasibility: is it a good fit for using XNAT?&lt;br /&gt;
**Availability of project support at each stage of the effort, including requirement gathering, data collection, system testing, continuing IT and informatics support.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= Current Status =&lt;br /&gt;
Test installations of XNAT (1.4 release candidate 2)  were done on Windows XP and Linux in VMware. Minor issues in the setup process needs to be fixed to make successful installation on Windows Vista. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Requirement gathering from several research and clinical projects have been conducted.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
XNAT 1.4R2 setup/installation process semi-automated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
XNAT extension prototype built.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Explored ways of extracting and loading additional DICOM fields.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= Other Software =&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In addition, an evaluation of dcm4chee|[http://www.dcm4che.org] (a DICOM Implementation in JAVA) is in progress. Simon's group runs an instance of dcm4chee. XNAT's DicomServer and DicomBrowser are based on dcm4che.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Globus MEDICUS (Medical Imaging and Computing for Unified Information Sharing)|[http://dev.globus.org/wiki/Incubator/MEDICUS] has been proposed to provide an image sharing solution.&lt;br /&gt;

**Availability of project support at each stage of the effort, including requirement gathering, data collection, system testing, continuing IT and informatics support.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= Current Status =&lt;br /&gt;
Test installations of XNAT (1.4 release candidate 2)  were done on Windows XP and Linux in VMware. Minor issues in the setup process needs to be fixed to make successful installation on Windows Vista. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Requirement gathering from several research and clinical projects have been conducted.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
XNAT 1.4R2 setup/installation process semi-automated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
XNAT extension prototype built.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Explored ways of extracting and loading additional DICOM fields.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= Other Software =&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In addition, an evaluation of dcm4chee|[http://www.dcm4che.org] (a DICOM Implementation in JAVA) is in progress. Simon's group runs an instance of dcm4chee. XNAT's DicomServer and DicomBrowser are based on dcm4che.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Globus MEDICUS (Medical Imaging and Computing for Unified Information Sharing)|[http://dev.globus.org/wiki/Incubator/MEDICUS] has been proposed to provide an image sharing solution.&lt;br /&gt;

*'''Dates:''' June 22-26, 2009&lt;br /&gt;
*'''Location:''' MIT. [[Meeting_Locations:MIT_Grier_A_%26B|Grier Rooms A &amp;amp; B: 34-401A &amp;amp; 34-401B]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Introduction to the FIRST JOINT PROJECT WEEK==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We are pleased to announce the FIRST JOINT PROJECT WEEK of hands-on research and development activity for Image-Guided Therapy and Neuroscience applications.  Participants will engage in open source programming using the [[NA-MIC-Kit|NA-MIC Kit]], algorithm design, medical imaging sequence development, tracking experiments, and clinical application. The main goal of this event is to move forward the translational research deliverables of the sponsoring centers and their collaborators. Active and potential collaborators are encouraged and welcome to attend this event. This event will be set up to maximize informal interaction between participants.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Active preparation will begin on''' Thursday, April 16th at 3pm ET''', with a kick-off teleconference.  Invitations to this call will be sent to members of the sponsoring communities, their collaborators, past attendees of the event, as well as any parties who have expressed an interest in working with these centers. The main goal of the kick-off call is to get an idea of which groups/projects will be active at the upcoming event, and to ensure that there is sufficient coverage for all. Subsequent teleconferences will allow for more focused discussions on individual projects and allow the hosts to finalize the project teams, consolidate any common components, and identify topics that should be discussed in breakout sessions. In the final days leading upto the meeting, all project teams will be asked to fill in a template page on this wiki that describes the objectives and plan of their projects.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The event itself will start off with a short presentation by each project team, driven using their previously created description, and will help all participants get acquainted with others who are doing similar work. In the rest of the week, about half the time will be spent in breakout discussions on topics of common interest of subsets of the attendees, and the other half will be spent in project teams, doing hands-on project work.  The hands-on activities will be done in 30-50 small teams of size 2-4, each with a mix of multi-disciplinary expertise.  To facilitate this work, a large room at MIT will be setup with several tables, with internet and power access, and each computer software development based team will gather on a table with their individual laptops, connect to the internet to download their software and data, and be able to work on their projects.  Teams working on projects that require the use of medical devices will proceed to Brigham and Women's Hospital and carry out their experiments there. On the last day of the event, a closing presentation session will be held in which each project team will present a summary of what they accomplished during the week.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This event is part of the translational research efforts of [http://www.na-mic.org NA-MIC], [http://www.ncigt.org NCIGT], [http://nac.spl.harvard.edu/ NAC], [http://catalyst.harvard.edu/home.html Harvard Catalyst], and [http://www.cimit.org CIMIT].  It is an expansion of the NA-MIC Summer Project Week that has been held annually since 2005. It will be held every summer at MIT and Brigham and Womens Hospital in Boston, typically during the last full week of June, and in Salt Lake City in the winter, typically during the second week of January.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A summary of all past NA-MIC Project Events that this FIRST JOINT EVENT is based on is available [[Project_Events#Past|here]].&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
# Please make sure that you are on the http://public.kitware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/na-mic-project-week mailing list&lt;br /&gt;
# Join the kickoff TCON on April 16, 3pm ET.&lt;br /&gt;
# [[Engineering:TCON_2009|June 18 TCON]] at 3pm ET to tie loose ends.  Anyone with un-addressed questions should call.&lt;br /&gt;
# By 3pm ET on June 11, 2009: [[Project_Week/Template|Complete a templated wiki page for your project]]. Please do not edit the template page itself, but create a new page for your project and cut-and-paste the text from this template page.  If you have questions, please send an email to tkapur at bwh.harvard.edu.&lt;br /&gt;
# By 3pm on June 18, 2009: Create a directory for each project on the [[Engineering:SandBox|NAMIC Sandbox]] (Zack)&lt;br /&gt;
## Commit on each sandbox directory the code examples/snippets that represent our first guesses of appropriate methods. (Luis and Steve will help with this, as needed)&lt;br /&gt;
## Gather test images in any of the Data sharing resources we have (e.g. the BIRN). These ones don't have to be many. At least three different cases, so we can get an idea of the modality-specific characteristics of these images. Put the IDs of these data sets on the wiki page. (the participants must do this.)&lt;br /&gt;
## Setup nightly tests on a separate Dashboard, where we will run the methods that we are experimenting with. The test should post result images and computation time. (Zack)&lt;br /&gt;
# Please note that by the time we get to the project event, we should be trying to close off a project milestone rather than starting to work on one...&lt;br /&gt;
# People doing Slicer related projects should come to project week with slicer built on your laptop.&lt;br /&gt;
## Projects to develop extension modules should work with the [http://viewvc.slicer.org/viewcvs.cgi/branches/Slicer-3-4/#dirlist Slicer-3-4 branch] (new code should not be checked into the branch).&lt;br /&gt;
## Projects to modify core behavior of slicer should be done on the [http://viewvc.slicer.org/viewcvs.cgi/trunk/ trunk].&lt;br /&gt;

There have been at least two serious attempts using XNAT, working with XNAT support group (NRG) at Harvard. An XNAT with customized schema was developed by Eli White a couple of years ago on Dory at NMR.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The lab recognizes the need for an XNAT-based system to manage images and other data.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

= Overview =&lt;br /&gt;
The Harvard Catalyst Medical Imaging Informatics Bench to Bedside (mi2b2) Initiative is preparing to provide services for setting up imaging data management systems (IDMS) to support research and clinical efforts involving imaging for Harvard Catalyst affiliated investigators.   Two simultaneous (and potentially conflicting) priorities are to 1) provide optimal, customized hardware and software tools for each investigator/ laboratory and 2) to harmonized these solutions to allow for aggregation of the raw and derived medical imaging data for subsequent sharing beyond the investigator/ laboratory. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
XNAT has been identified as a potential software solution for providing the core functionalities of a Harvard Catalyst IDMS.&lt;br /&gt;
A typical IDMS service will include the following steps:&lt;br /&gt;
*Requirement gathering&lt;br /&gt;
*Gap analysis&lt;br /&gt;
*Infrastructure setup&lt;br /&gt;
*Data modeling&lt;br /&gt;
*IDMS installation and setup&lt;br /&gt;
*Data loading&lt;br /&gt;
*Testing and evaluation&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The goals of current phase of the initiative are to:&lt;br /&gt;
#Gather concrete and specific requirements for imaging data transfer and management from a number of high-volume imaging projects led by Harvard Catalyst-affiliated investigators that are generating valuable derived image data with the intention to share that data beyond their own laboratory; &lt;br /&gt;
#Generate a list of overlapping requirements from these specific investigators; &lt;br /&gt;
#Prioritize the projects to determine next steps; &lt;br /&gt;
#Deploy a demo IDMS based on the default XNAT source code;&lt;br /&gt;
#Assess the effort required to extend XNAT code to support the features identified.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
= Current Status =&lt;br /&gt;
Test installations of XNAT (1.4 release candidate 2)  were done on Windows XP and Linux in VMware. Minor issues in the setup process needs to be fixed to make successful installation on Windows Vista. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Requirement gathering from several research and clinical projects have been conducted.  &lt;br /&gt;

*'''Dates:''' June 22-26, 2009&lt;br /&gt;
*'''Location:''' MIT. [[Meeting_Locations:MIT_Grier_A_%26B|Grier Rooms A &amp;amp; B: 34-401A &amp;amp; 34-401B]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Introduction to the FIRST JOINT PROJECT WEEK==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We are pleased to announce the FIRST JOINT PROJECT WEEK of hands-on research and development activity for Image-Guided Therapy and Neuroscience applications.  Participants will engage in open source programming using the [[NA-MIC-Kit|NA-MIC Kit]], algorithm design, medical imaging sequence development, tracking experiments, and clinical application. The main goal of this event is to move forward the translational research deliverables of the sponsoring centers and their collaborators. Active and potential collaborators are encouraged and welcome to attend this event. This event will be set up to maximize informal interaction between participants.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Active preparation will begin on''' Thursday, April 16th at 3pm ET''', with a kick-off teleconference.  Invitations to this call will be sent to members of the sponsoring communities, their collaborators, past attendees of the event, as well as any parties who have expressed an interest in working with these centers. The main goal of the kick-off call is to get an idea of which groups/projects will be active at the upcoming event, and to ensure that there is sufficient coverage for all. Subsequent teleconferences will allow for more focused discussions on individual projects and allow the hosts to finalize the project teams, consolidate any common components, and identify topics that should be discussed in breakout sessions. In the final days leading upto the meeting, all project teams will be asked to fill in a template page on this wiki that describes the objectives and plan of their projects.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The event itself will start off with a short presentation by each project team, driven using their previously created description, and will help all participants get acquainted with others who are doing similar work. In the rest of the week, about half the time will be spent in breakout discussions on topics of common interest of subsets of the attendees, and the other half will be spent in project teams, doing hands-on project work.  The hands-on activities will be done in 30-50 small teams of size 2-4, each with a mix of multi-disciplinary expertise.  To facilitate this work, a large room at MIT will be setup with several tables, with internet and power access, and each computer software development based team will gather on a table with their individual laptops, connect to the internet to download their software and data, and be able to work on their projects.  Teams working on projects that require the use of medical devices will proceed to Brigham and Women's Hospital and carry out their experiments there. On the last day of the event, a closing presentation session will be held in which each project team will present a summary of what they accomplished during the week.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This event is part of the translational research efforts of [http://www.na-mic.org NA-MIC], [http://www.ncigt.org NCIGT], [http://nac.spl.harvard.edu/ NAC], [http://catalyst.harvard.edu/home.html Harvard Catalyst], and [http://www.cimit.org CIMIT].  It is an expansion of the NA-MIC Summer Project Week that has been held annually since 2005. It will be held every summer at MIT and Brigham and Womens Hospital in Boston, typically during the last full week of June, and in Salt Lake City in the winter, typically during the second week of January.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
# Please make sure that you are on the http://public.kitware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/na-mic-project-week mailing list&lt;br /&gt;
# Join the kickoff TCON on April 16, 3pm ET.&lt;br /&gt;
# [[Engineering:TCON_2009|June 18 TCON]] at 3pm ET to tie loose ends.  Anyone with un-addressed questions should call.&lt;br /&gt;
# By 3pm ET on June 11, 2009: [[Project_Week/Template|Complete a templated wiki page for your project]]. Please do not edit the template page itself, but create a new page for your project and cut-and-paste the text from this template page.  If you have questions, please send an email to tkapur at bwh.harvard.edu.&lt;br /&gt;
# By 3pm on June 18, 2009: Create a directory for each project on the [[Engineering:SandBox|NAMIC Sandbox]] (Zack)&lt;br /&gt;
## Commit on each sandbox directory the code examples/snippets that represent our first guesses of appropriate methods. (Luis and Steve will help with this, as needed)&lt;br /&gt;
## Gather test images in any of the Data sharing resources we have (e.g. the BIRN). These ones don't have to be many. At least three different cases, so we can get an idea of the modality-specific characteristics of these images. Put the IDs of these data sets on the wiki page. (the participants must do this.)&lt;br /&gt;
## Setup nightly tests on a separate Dashboard, where we will run the methods that we are experimenting with. The test should post result images and computation time. (Zack)&lt;br /&gt;
# Please note that by the time we get to the project event, we should be trying to close off a project milestone rather than starting to work on one...&lt;br /&gt;
# People doing Slicer related projects should come to project week with slicer built on your laptop.&lt;br /&gt;
## Projects to develop extension modules should work with the [http://viewvc.slicer.org/viewcvs.cgi/branches/Slicer-3-4/#dirlist Slicer-3-4 branch] (new code should not be checked into the branch).&lt;br /&gt;
## Projects to modify core behavior of slicer should be done on the [http://viewvc.slicer.org/viewcvs.cgi/trunk/ trunk].&lt;br /&gt;

= Overview =&lt;br /&gt;
The CTSC Imaging Informatics Initiative (I3) is planning to provide services for setting up imaging data management systems (IDMS) in support of research and clinical efforts involving imaging in Harvard CTSC. XNAT has been identified for providing the core functionalities of the IDMS.&lt;br /&gt;
A typical IDMS service will include the following steps:&lt;br /&gt;
*Requirement gathering&lt;br /&gt;
*Gap analysis&lt;br /&gt;
*Infrastructure setup&lt;br /&gt;
*Data modeling&lt;br /&gt;
*IDMS installation and setup&lt;br /&gt;
*Data loading&lt;br /&gt;
*Testing and evaluation&lt;br /&gt;
*Ongoing data entry, data loading/transfer, and system monitoring and maintenance&lt;br /&gt;
*System upgrade&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=Data=&lt;br /&gt;
The Dickerson lab has about 250 scans for their own studies, and 150 scans for collaborators. Scans include both MRI and fMRI. Images files are current scattered over several file servers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Other data are stored with Excel spreadsheets.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Current Workflow=&lt;br /&gt;
DICOM files are transferred from the scanners (PACS?) to a local DICOM Server, and then copied to lab machines&lt;br /&gt;
Images are processed with FreeSurfer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
There have been at least two serious attempts using XNAT, working with XNAT support group (NRG) at Harvard. An XNAT with customized schema was developed by Eli White a couple of years ago on Dory at NMR.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The lab recognizes the need for an XNAT-based system to manage images and other data.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

Description of big picture, goal(s) of project&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
= Data =&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
COG [http://www.childrensoncologygroup.org/ (Children's Oncology Group)] phase I consortium imaging/clinical trial ADVL0712. &lt;br /&gt;
*25 patients (with multiple imaging studies per patient, including CT, MRI and PET imaging)&lt;br /&gt;
*In addition to DICOM files, much data exist on various Excel spreadsheets, in file folders, and as email attachments, in LA and Boston. Currently, the only way to integrate all of the data available about a patient is to manually assemble all of these pieces of information. This is a common scenario for multi-institutional clinical trials.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Data Transfer =&lt;br /&gt;
Diagnostic imaging and meta data reside at the COG Phase I Image Center in LA, and can be easily pulled to a local workstation at Children¹s Boston via the COG Grid.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Work Flow =&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Osirix is the preferred image viewer. &lt;br /&gt;
Other tools provided by COG.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= Data Management Need =&lt;br /&gt;
*All of the non-protected DICOM header info should be extractable and searchable (not just study name and protocol ID, but other data such as FDG dose and pt weight)&lt;br /&gt;
*The studies must be referenced to therapy surveillance dates, i.e. post-treatment week 4,  off-study scan, etc&lt;br /&gt;
*The surveillance period and actual imaging studies dates may not coincide for various practical reason related to patient care. We are currently logging this information on spreadsheets&lt;br /&gt;
*The institutions are usually asked to submit the local radiologist’s report along with the images. These reports come in various formats, ranging from electronic reports included with the image files to PDFs. These are currently sent by email.&lt;br /&gt;
*Measurements are made to determine treatment response; there is no way of posting those annotated images used to determine response back to the Grid. Posting the measurements and the annotated images used to make the assessment would be VERY useful when disagreements arise between central reviews and institutional assessments.&lt;br /&gt;
*Genetic and pathology data. &lt;br /&gt;
* As a research study progresses and new information is learned, supplemental data is often required (by the FDA, for example). It is very common for us to go back to institutions and request additional clinical data based on our interim analyses. We would need a “placeholder” for such future data.&lt;br /&gt;
*launch image analysis tools – such as Simon, Karl, and others have been developing, DCE-MRI for example – and use XNAT to access the appropriate imaging data hosted on the GRID and subsequently post the analyses back to the GRID. Again, these are currently manual operations.&lt;br /&gt;

= Overview =&lt;br /&gt;
The CTSC Imaging Informatics Initiative (I3) is planning to provide services for setting up imaging data management systems (IDMS) in support of research and clinical efforts involving imaging in Harvard CTSC. XNAT has been identified for providing the core functionalities of the IDMS.&lt;br /&gt;
A typical IDMS service will include the following steps:&lt;br /&gt;
*Requirement gathering&lt;br /&gt;
*Gap analysis&lt;br /&gt;
*Infrastructure setup&lt;br /&gt;
*Data modeling&lt;br /&gt;
*IDMS installation and setup&lt;br /&gt;
*Data loading&lt;br /&gt;
*Testing and evaluation&lt;br /&gt;
*Ongoing data entry, data loading/transfer, and system monitoring and maintenance&lt;br /&gt;

'''2. Procedure when several groups offer their expertise for a consultation request'''&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Until the web-based consultation tracking tool JIRA is up and running, all members working on a consultation request should e-mail the rest of the group via the listserv whenever they contact and investigator.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''3. Feedback on the evaluation plan'''&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Randy sent a copy of the evaluation plan last week and reminded all the members to have a look at it and get back to her with comments.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''4. Use of TIMC software for COG project''' &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* The BIRN project proposed the use of XNAT to provide COG with an informatics tool to help with data visualization and data management/transfer.&lt;br /&gt;
** This project is viewed by the consortium as a good test case for XNAT integration.&lt;br /&gt;
* In the mean time, Bill and Gordon Harris proposed to give Valerie, Yong, Stephan and Simon a demo of the TIMC software to evaluate if it could fits COG needs.&lt;br /&gt;
** As a multi-institution informatics tool for image analysis and data management/transfer, the software created by TIMC could be used as a model for what COG is trying to build.&lt;br /&gt;
** Annick reminded that TMIC works on a fee-for-service structure and NCI guidelines and grant rules must be followed. It might not be possible for TIMC to share the software and waived the fee-for-service if they don't provide software support. TIMC could definitively and easily add another site and helping support COG but first the regulations attached to TIMC must be reviewed by Annick, Gordon and Bill.&lt;br /&gt;
* Randy gave an overview of BIRN mission: provide tools for the medical community, open source software anybody can use if they have the IT people to support it. She will be circulating BIRN grant aim to the group&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;br /&gt;
Sent by Ron Kikinis, James Ross at Surgical Planning and Channing labs made contact for a potential data management project based on XNAT. James Ross and Raúl San José Estépar have met with Randy Gollub and Dan Marcus before.&lt;br /&gt;

= Data =&lt;br /&gt;
The COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) Gene project is a five year research study being conducted by a group of doctors and scientists throughout the United States. The scope of the project is quite large, with a patient recruitment goal of 10,000 over five years (approximately 3,000 currently). Data includes:&lt;br /&gt;
*CT scans used to phenotype the disease&lt;br /&gt;
*Genetic information&lt;br /&gt;
*Various derived data files (either additional, filtered datasets or summary statistics files in Excel) produced by a CT image-processing chain.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= Data Management =&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There is currently no automated systematic mechanism for data transfer and data management. CT data was received on a hard disk drive and then transferred to local computers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Both James Ross and  Raúl San José focus on image analysis. However they have the necessary training and willingness to take over a developed XNAT installation. They'd need help on developing customized data model (XML schema) and consultation on jump starting the project.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

*System upgrade&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The goals of current phase of the initiative are to: 1) gather concrete and specific requirements for imaging data transfer and management from a number of labs in Harvard CTSC; 2)generate overlapping requirements from these specific needs; 3) prioritize the potential projects to determine next steps; 4)Deploy a demo IDMS based on XNAT.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The use cases presented here are based on on-going informal interviews with various labs and email communications.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
== Use Cases ==&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Ellen Grant, CHB]]&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Stephan Voss, CHB]]&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Simon Warfield, CHB]]&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Bill Hanlon, DF/HCC]]&lt;br /&gt;
*[[COPD Gene Project, BWH]]&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Brad Dickerson, MGH]]&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Dan Iosifescu, MGH]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Project Prioritization Criteria==&lt;br /&gt;
Possible criteria include:&lt;br /&gt;
*Impact&lt;br /&gt;
**Number of users&lt;br /&gt;
**Duration of the project&lt;br /&gt;
**Amount of data (# of subjects, # of scans ...)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Success Potential&lt;br /&gt;
**Commitment of PI&lt;br /&gt;
**Feasibility: is it a good fit for using XNAT?&lt;br /&gt;
**Availability of project support at each stage of the effort, including requirement gathering, data collection, system testing, continuing IT and informatics support.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Status ==&lt;br /&gt;
Test installations of XNAT (1.4 release candidate 2)  were done on Windows XP. Minor issues in the setup process needs to be fixed to make successful installation on Windows Vista. Effort on setting up XNAT on Linux running in VMware is underway. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In addition, an evaluation of dcm4chee|[http://www.dcm4che.org] (a DICOM Implementation in JAVA) is in progress. Simon's group runs an instance of dcm4chee. XNAT's DicomServer and DicomBrowser are based on dcm4che.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Overview ==&lt;br /&gt;
The CTSC Imaging Informatics Initiative (I3) is planning to provide services for setting up imaging data management systems (IDMS) in support of research and clinical efforts involving imaging in Harvard CTSC. XNAT has been identified for providing the core functionalities of the IDMS.&lt;br /&gt;
A typical IDMS service will include the following steps:&lt;br /&gt;
*Requirement gathering&lt;br /&gt;
*Gap analysis&lt;br /&gt;
*Infrastructure setup&lt;br /&gt;
*Data modeling&lt;br /&gt;
*IDMS installation and setup&lt;br /&gt;
*Data loading&lt;br /&gt;
*Testing and evaluation&lt;br /&gt;
*Ongoing data entry, data loading/transfer, and system monitoring and maintenance&lt;br /&gt;
*System upgrade&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The goals of current phase of the initiative are to: 1) gather concrete and specific requirements for imaging data transfer and management from a number of labs in Harvard CTSC; 2)generate overlapping requirements from these specific needs; 3) prioritize the potential projects to determine next steps; 4)Deploy a demo IDMS based on XNAT.&lt;br /&gt;
