Agenda

  1. Review specific use cases to define the exact scope of the project (what is in and what is out of our bucket) and:
    1. articulate questions that require policy level discussion, review and decision (to be addressed in subsequent subgroup meetings of site leaders).
    2. specify technical requirements for what is "in the bucket" to be addressed in subsequent implementation planning meetings

Uses cases

Randy presented a couple of slides with different use cases. The goal of the meeting was to discuss the first ones and learn what are the mechanisms in place at each institutions.

Use case 1

The PI wants to use his own clinical images, with the clinical tools. He is not leaving his institution.

  • At CHB and BWH, a PI can not have direct access to his data in PACS, he would need an IRB for research purpose. Some institutions have an easier IRB process in place for this type of case. We need to educate ourselves about the process at BIDMC and MGH.
  • Tools that are in place for the PI to search his data.
    • At MGH you can use a physician's name to do a query in RPDR (The RPDR -Research Patient Data Registery- is a warehouse of clinical data from Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH), Brigham and Women's Hospital (BWH), Faulkner Hosptial (FH), Spaulding Rehabilitation Hosital (SRH), and Newton Wellesley Hospital (NWH) available for research purpose).
    • CHB and BIDMC are getting searching capabilities but they need to add radiology data.
    • At CHB, the search for radiology data is not automated, the PI must do it manually.
  • Red flag rose by Rick Robertson from CHB:
    • The Radiology department already has problems with groups who access medical imaging data without asking the radiologists. It leads to different groups working on the same subject without collaborating with each others. He feels that by making the retrieval of clinical data easier, we will make it even worst.
