Summary
: U24 CA180918 (http://qiicr.org) and U01 CA140206.
The following schematic summarizes much of the work done within the QIICR grant to augment the PET/CT scans with segmentations and clinical data using the DICOM standard: (click to enlarge)

The mission of the QIN is to improve the role of quantitative imaging for clinical decision making in oncology by developing and validating data acquisition, analysis methods, and tools to tailor treatment for individual patients and predict or monitor the response to drug or radiation therapy. More information is available on the Quantitative Imaging Network Collections page. Interested investigators can apply to the QIN at: Quantitative Imaging for Evaluation of Responses to Cancer Therapies (U01) PAR-11-150.

Detailed Description

Associated Clinical Metadata

• Structured Report DICOM objects (Modality SR), are available for a subset of these subjects in the DICOM downloads and can be distinguished from image files by the series description “Clinical Data.” Note, there is no image preview thumbnail for a Structured Report.
