Mission

Participants

  • PI: Ellen Grant
  • staff: Rudolph Pienaar
  • clinicians
  • IT staff

Data

There are currently about 1540 studies, each with about 1k images

Current Workflow

DICOM raw images are produced at radiology PACS at MGH, and are manually pushed to the PACS hosted on KAOS resided at MGH NMR center. The images are processed by a set of PERL scripts to be renamed and re-organized into a file structure where all images for a study are saved into a directory named for the study.

DICOM images are currently viewed with Osiris on Macs.

Data Management need

It is desired to develop an Image Management System for BDC (IMS4BDC) with which at least the following can be done:

  • Move images from MGH (KAOS) to a BDC machine at Children’s
  • Import legacy data into IMS4BDC from existing file structure and CDs
  • Query capabilities: (example) “Show all diffusion studies where patients ages are < 6”
  • Mange post-processed images
  • Sharing images with clinical physicians; export post-processed data back to clinical PACS

Other Information

Rudolph has worked with XNAT support group at Harvard.
