  5. Radiation safety/ dose safety
  6. Examples to support pilot grant proposal
  7. ARRA supplement
  8. RSNA (DCE-MRI)
  9. Talks scheduled at different institutions

In attendance:

  • Valerie Humblet
  • Jeff Yapp
  • Randy Gollub
  • Annick Van den Abbeele
  • Bob Lenkinski
  • Stephan Voss
  • Todd Perlstein
  • Ron Kikinis
  • Simon Warfield


1. Update on imaging consultation requests

  • There was no new consultation posted through the website this week.


2. Feedback from ACRIN

  • The feedback after the educational session was very good. A comment that came several times is that there is a real need for training RA, Study Coordinator et all the people involved in clinical trial that are not MDs or PhDs.


3. Education program

  • Ron insisted that the way to get more consultations is to start our education program. Training of the residents in quantitative imaging and Slicer hands-on workshops would be a good start. Valerie and Jeff will start planning Slicer demonstration at each hospital.
  • Stephan insisted that in the CHB oncology group, there is also a need for more training in imaging for CRA, study coordinators etc.
  • Annick got the same request from image analysts at DFCI that would like to get more training on the basis of imaging.
  • Jeff has a couple of lecture on imaging, very basic that he circulated a couple of months ago. He was in touch with the clinical trial office at DFCI and they were very interested. The same material could be used for CRA, people working in IRB etc. The material presented at the ACRIN meeting is not basic enough for this audience.
  • Ron also suggested to post a series of images with different problems and build a tutorial about it.


4. MRI safety

  • The MRI safety tutorial is finished, as well as the white paper.
  • Valerie is still collecting some risk language, consent forms etc from the different institutions.
  • Valerie will create a new training section in our WIKI page with the material about MRI safety, quantitative imaging and Radiation safety.
