Imaging Source Site (ISS) groups are created and governed by participants from institutions providing imaging data for a given cancer type. Modeled after TCGA’s analysis groups, these ISS groups have the opportunity to publish a marker paper for a given cancer type, as outlined in the publication policies below, to increase participation in building multi-institutional data sets into an open community resource.
Publication Policies
Ongoing Research Efforts
Imaging Source Site (ISS) Groups are being populated and governed by participants from institutions that have provided imaging data to the archive for a given cancer type. Modeled after TCGA analysis groups, ISS groups are given the opportunity to publish a marker paper for a given cancer type per the guidelines in the table above. This opportunity will generate increased participation in building these multi-institutional data sets as they become an open community resource. Current TCGA-BLCA source sites include:
Group Name | Tumor Type |
| TCGA Bladder Phenotype Research Group | Urothelial Bladder Carcinoma (BLCA) |
TCGA Collections Publication Guidelines
TCIA publication guidelines, derived from the policy outlined by TCGA, must be followed in addition to the TCGA Data Portal publication policy: http://cancergenome.nih.gov/abouttcga/policies/publicationguidelines.

The specific status of each tumor data set is available on the the Data Usage Policies and Restrictions page page. Do not hesitate to contact contact help@cancerimagingarchive.net with any questions.
Ongoing Research Efforts
CIP continues to encourage ad hoc multi-institutional research teams to analyze these data sets as they are collected. Efforts have begun or are being initiated for the following TCGA tissue types. Points of contact for collaborating with the existing research groups can be found on their respective pages.
