Data in the archive is available through other methods.  For example, a person versed in scripting or programming could easily pull data from the archive using TCIA's or NBIA Search's RESTful interfaces, described at TCIA Programmatic Interface REST API Guides.  Other organizations and people have also created software that can access data in TCIA.  Many, but not all, of these tools and sites are listed in the Data Analysis Centers section of TCIA's web site.  If you are interested in using TCIA data in the cloud, please check out NCI's Imaging Data Commons, which host public subsets (not all – yet) of TCIA data on a cloud platform for use by researchers.  (IDC is still growing, and has not yet reached its full plan yet.)
