BWH/Iowa QIN/AIM meeting (March 22)
Agenda to be finalized by Milan Sonka, based on email communication of BWH and Iowa teams
Items of interest (Reinhard Beichel):
- AIM - general overview + discussion (~1 h)
- Discussion of BWH QIN use-case (~30 min)
- Discussion of Iowa QIN use-case - H&N (~1-2 h)
- Discussion of Iowa bioinformatics infrastructure setup: XNAT, databases, application to Iowa use cases (~30 min)
- AIM/Slicer project - overview + discussion: 2D/3D/4D objects, AIM toolkit concept vs. specific use-case implementation, ... (~2h)
- Slicer 4 - module development, GUI design, future directions, development support, etc. (~1-2h; I'm not sure if this will be covered by other presentations and who would be the right person for this)
Andrey's sugested items
1) Slicer 4.0 status and future (~30 min -- beyond what will be covered by the general workshop program, Fedorov) * what is currently available * what is being actively developed and should be available soon * it would help if Iowa collect specific set of questions according to your needs 2) AIM 3.0 overview (~1 hr, Fedorov + Iowa AIM experts) * concepts and motivation for structured reporting * AIM * alternatives (e.g., DICOM SR) * available support: user-level tools, toolkits * limitations 3) Slicer/AIM integration plans and status (~30 min, Fedorov) * connection with the existing Slicer functionality * supported annotation types * user-level workflow * limitations 4) BWH QIN use case (~30-45 min, Fedorov) * research questions of our interest * kinds of data being analyzed * processing workflows * use of Slicer * applicability of AIM 5) Iowa QIN use case (~1 hr, Iowa) * I would like to learn specifically about Iowa bioinformatics infrastructure (use of XNAT, other components) 6) Brainstorming/discussion of AIM applicability, alternatives (~1hr) 6) Focused discussion for developers, as Reinhard suggested (~1-2 hr), need to coordinate with the general program events to avoid duplication)
