Excerpt

The TCGA-LGG data collection is part of a larger effort to enhance the The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) data set with characterized radiological images.  The Cancer Imaging Program (CIP) with the cooperation of several of the TCGA tissue-contributing institutions has archived a large portion of the radiological images of the genetically-analyzed low grade glioma (LGG) cases.

Note: TCGA Guidelines require formal permission to submit publications using this data at this time.  More info at http://cancergenome.nih.gov/abouttcga/policies/publicationguidelines.


Clinical, genetic, and pathology data resides in the TCGA data portal while the radiological data is stored on The Cancer Imaging Archive (TCIA).   The data utilizes the same TCGA patient identifiers in both repositories, allowing researchers to explore the correlations between tissue genotype and radiological phenotype. This Collection within TCIA is related to the LGG disease type within TCGA.
