In attendance:
- Valerie Humblet
- Simon Warfield
- Gordon Williams
- Annick Van den Abbeele
- Bob Lenkinski
- Bruce Rosen
1. Consultations
- JIRA # 159: Valerie will re contact the PI now that she found a couple of people with FSL routines expertise that could be potential consultants.
- Valerie will compile the hours spent on the consultations from 11/09 to 04/10.
2. Education program
- Bob talked to Warren Manning who expressed his interest in giving lectures during our coming cardiovascular sessions.
- Simon is working on the segmentation and validation presentation.
- Valerie will contact Greg Sorensen to check his availability to give a lecture during the neuroimaging sessions.
3. Plan for ACRIN meeting
- The CTSA imaging working group is planning to have a one day working session at the ACRIN meeting (Pentagon City, Sept28-Oct2). Randy mentioned the mi2b2 project during the last t-con of the CTSA IWG and other groups were very interested and would like to learn more. We will plan to give a 20-30 minutes talk about the project. First we will send Dan Sullivan an overview of mi2b2 before the next CTSA IWG steering committee (July 15).
4. Multicenter trial
- The group had its 2nd meeting. Both Charles (MRI) and Jeff (PET/CT) provided material on how to qualify sites, do the quality insurance etc.
- The aims of the group are:
- to prepare a set of guidelines on how to enroll patients, qualify sites with phantoms. Anyone who has a prospective idea for a multicenter trial will be able to access these documents.
- to catalogue existing multicenter trials
- Bruce Rosen suggested to contact Karl Helmer (Martinos Center) who has a tremendous expertise in design and optimization of multi-site magnetic resonance imaging trials.
