Harvard Translational Imaging Consortium Meeting Minutes July 8, 2008
In Attendance (in person at the Martinos Imaging Center, Charlestown):
- Stephen Voss, Children's
- Simon Warfield, Children's
- Ron Kikinis, BWH
- Clare Tempany, BWH
- Bill Hanlon, MGH
- Gordon Harris, MGH
- Annick Van den Abbeele, DFCI
- Robert Lenkinski, BIDMC
- Randy Gollub, MGH

- Ann Schlesinger, CTSC Navigator
Meeting began with a tour of Martinos imaging facilities and GCRC supported Biomedical Imaging Core unit. Note that this is just a subset of MGH based imaging resources. The wiki pages are being updated to include this more comprehensive catalog.
Then we began to gather ideas from group for vision of what we could/should do
- Unanimous agreement that this Consortium envisions itself as an expert consulting body to the CTSC and the affiliated academic medical centers in the domain of medical imaging. Consensus agreement that this group is willing to systematically explore, discuss and then come to agreement on policies for medical imaging related issues that are causing obstacles for clinical translational investigators.
Specific examples include:
- Screening forms/policies for MRI scanning
- MRI safety training procedures for staff
- Recommendations for screening prior to injection of gadolinium contrast
- Consensus that it will take some time to come to a clear view of what domains of infrastructure/expertise/etc should be disseminated across our sites and what should be centralized at some or one site. Agreed that there will not be a "one size fits all" solution. Randy and Bruce to gather more information on the level of resources available to the Consortium to guide this decision making.
Updates to topics already underway
1. Consultation Service Update on this expected next week.
2. Education Program Randy met with Eric
3. Collaborative response to Harvard wide Technology White Paper
4. Curation of Site resources

5. Regulatory Issues Lowering barrier to utilization (GAC review? Applications????)
6. Face to face meeting dates
