Mission
See http://www.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/~bradd/research.html
Participants
- sites involved: MGH NMR center
- number of users: >10
- PI: Brad Dickerson
- staff: Akram Bakkour (Study coordinator/MRI technician/Lab manager)
- clinicians
- IT staff: NMR could provide IT support
Data
The Dickerson lab has about 250 scans for their own studies, and 150 scans for collaborators. Scans include both MRI and fMRI. Images files are current scattered over several file servers.
Other data are stored with Excel spreadsheets.
Current Workflow
DICOM files are transferred from the scanners (PACS?) to a local DICOM Server, and then copied to lab machines Images are processed with FreeSurfer.
Other Information
There have been at least two serious attempts using XNAT, working with XNAT support group (NRG) at Harvard. An XNAT with customized schema was developed by Eli White a couple of years ago on Dory at NMR.
The lab recognizes the need for an XNAT-based system to manage images and other data.
