Harvard Catalyst Medical Imaging Informatics ARRA Administrative Supplement
Medical Imaging Informatics Bench to Bedside (mi2b2)
|
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.
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 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.
Minimum Specs for development server to host an i2b2 instance with the STAR-D software
This server will need to be inside the institutional firewall, have PACS access via institutional intranet, a fixed IP address, but no access to outside world.
