In this exhibit we will focus on demonstration of support for communication of image segmentation results. Image segmentation is a common task in quantitative image analysis concerned with partitioning image into regions based on certain application-specific characteristic. DICOM standard defines Segmentation Information Object Definition (IOD) (DICOM SEG) as the image object representing a classification of pixels in one or more referenced images. DICOM SEG is a versatile object that maintains detailed provenance record about the imaged subject and reference imaging data, and provides unambiguous specification of the anatomy being segmented using structured terminology. DICOM SEG also facilitates communication of the information about the segmentation method and software used, as well as information about reader for segmentations performed manually. Support of DICOM SEG has now been implemented in several research and commercial tools, including tools that are free open source, represented by the groups participating in this exhibit. DICOM SEG has also been adopted as the format for communicating algorithm comparison challenges conducted by the NCI Quantitative Imaging Network (QIN), producing a growing publicly available collection of the representative analysis results segmenting publicly available cancer-related image datasets.

Fig5 ChestCT Slicer.png

This course will be offered by the Neuroimage Analysis Center (NAC), at the 101th Scientific Assembly and Annual Meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA 2015). As part of the outreach missions of this NIH funded National Center, we have developed an offering of freely available, multi-platforms open source software to enable medical image analysis research. The 3D Visualization course along with the 3D Visualization-part1 and 3D Visualization-part2 datasets aim to introduce translational clinical scientists to the basics of viewing and interacting in 3D with DICOM volumes and anatomical models using the 3DSlicer software. The version of the software that will be used during this course is Slicer4.5.

A Practical Introduction to Structured Reporting Tools and Resources

Learning objectives: 1) Understand the advantages of using structured data capture tools for research at your institution. 2) Learn how RSNA Radlex and other popular lexicons can help reduce ambiguity in your data. 3) Learn about tools leveraging the National Cancer Institute’s Annotation Imaging and Markup (AIM) format for reporting radiologist observations and quantitative image analysis results. 4) Learn about tools leveraging DICOM for reporting quantitative image analysis results.

Abstract: Institutions across the world are sitting on a potential gold mine of imaging-related information about their patients, but many are unable to make use of it. Structured reporting helps address this problem by leveraging standardized lexicons and case report forms to extract meaningful information from images and enable easy reuse of the resulting data. A number of initiatives have been developed by academic institutions, governments, and other organizations in order to help promote the broader use structured reporting in clinical imaging research. This course seeks to convey a basic understanding of structured reporting concepts and a summary of available tools and resources. Participants should leave the course with a knowledge of which tools/resources will best suit their needs and how to get started with using them.

Quantitative Image Analysis Tools: Communicating Quantitative Image Analysis Results (part of Radiomics Mini-Course: Informatics Tools and Databases)

Learning objectives: 1) Review the meaning and importance of interoperability for quantitative image analysis tools. 2) Review specific use cases motivating standards-based interoperable communication of the analysis results. 3) Learn about free open source tools that can facilitate interoperable communication of analysis results using DICOM standard.

Abstract: Quantitative imaging holds tremendous but largely unrealized potential for objective characterization of disease and response to therapy. Quantitative imaging and analysis methods are actively researched by the community. Certain quantitation techniques are gradually becoming available both in the commercial products and clinical research platforms. As new quantitation tools are being introduced, tasks such as their integration into the clinical or research enterprise environment, comparison with similar existing tools and reproducible validation are becoming of critical importance. Such tasks require that the analysis tools provide the capability to communicate the analysis results using open and interoperable mechanisms. The use of open standards is also of utmost importance for building aggregate community repositories and data mining of the analysis results. The goal of this course is to build the understanding of the interoperability as applied to quantitative image analysis, with the focus on clinical research applications.

Quantitative Imaging Reading Room

3D Slicer: An open-source platform for segmentation, registration, quantitative imaging and 3D visualization of multi-modal image data

The 3DSlicer exhibit will consist in a series of thematic demonstrations using multi-modal image datasets, which include MRI, CT, PET and DCE. A team of 3DSlicer experts will be running the demonstrations with sample datasets or, where appropriate, data provided by attendees, and will deliver a series of daily 60-minute Meet-the-Experts sessions. The hands-on sessions will demonstrate 3D visualization functionalities (e.g. volume rendered head, thoracic and abdominal CT scans, surface rendered atlases of brain, knee, and abdomen), segmentation tools (e.g. semi-automated segmentation of a glioma case, MRI-based automated parcellation of the human brain), quantitative imaging features (e.g. longitudinal analysis of meningioma growth, PET/CT quantitative assessment of tumor response, traumatic brain injury cases follow-up) as well as image-guided therapy applications (e.g. exploration of peritumoral white matter for neurosurgical planning, registration of prostate imaging data). In addition, the exhibit will present new workflows for full brain tractography and multi-volume exploration of prostate DCE MRI data.

Meet the Experts Sessions

Daily one-hour Meet-The-Experts sessions will be held from Sunday to Thursday as part of the Quantitative Imaging Room exhibit. The sessions will give participants an opportunity to interact with the on-site faculty through software demonstrations and general question and answer sessions, which will include a series of hands-on demonstrations of the 3DSlicer modules for quantitative imaging.

  • Schedule:
    • Sunday, November 29: 12:30 p.m. – 1:30 p.m.
    • Monday, November 30: 12:15 p.m. – 1:15 p.m.
    • Wednesday, December 1: 12:15 p.m. – 1:15 p.m.
    • Thursday, December 2: 12:15 p.m. – 1:15 p.m.

Interoperable communication of quantitative image analysis results using DICOM standard

In this exhibit we will focus on demonstration of support for communication of image segmentation results. Image segmentation is a common task in quantitative image analysis concerned with partitioning image into regions based on certain application-specific characteristic. DICOM standard defines Segmentation Information Object Definition (IOD) (DICOM SEG) as the image object representing a classification of pixels in one or more referenced images. DICOM SEG is a versatile object that maintains detailed provenance record about the imaged subject and reference imaging data, and provides unambiguous specification of the anatomy being segmented using structured terminology. DICOM SEG also facilitates communication of the information about the segmentation method and software used, as well as information about reader for segmentations performed manually. Support of DICOM SEG has now been implemented in several research and commercial tools, including tools that are free open source, represented by the groups participating in this exhibit. DICOM SEG has also been adopted as the format for communicating algorithm comparison challenges conducted by the NCI Quantitative Imaging Network (QIN), producing a growing publicly available collection of the representative analysis results segmenting publicly available cancer-related image datasets.

By the end of the session participants should have a medical model that is 3D printable. Additional free learning resources for more advanced medical 3D printing will be provided. Techniques and software packages discussed will work on Windows, Macintosh, and Linux platforms.
