What's New
In July August 2023, the following API was APIs were added to this guide.
- Collection Descriptions
- Manifest for Text Search
- Manifest from Patient Study Series
- MD5 Hierarchy
- GetCartData
- GetCollectionDescriptions
Purpose of this Guide
The This guide explains the advanced features of the National Biomedical Imaging Archive (NBIA) REST APIs allow you to access the search and download functions used in the TCIA radiology portal. The NBIA Advanced REST APIs , described on this page, provide capabilities to access restricted collections, which require login authentication. They also provide advanced features that are geared towards developers seeking to integrate searching and downloading TCIA data into their own web and desktop applications.
...
NBIA Advanced REST API Base URL, Format, and Return Values
Access to any NBIA Advanced REST API requires an authentication token. You must contact the TCIA Help Desk to receive the client_id and client_secret needed to generate a token. If you want to access restricted collections, the TCIA Help Desk must give your user account permission to access them.
The full API for data structure consists of a base URL followed by the API and query parameters, in that order. The base URL to access NBIA Advanced REST API data is https://services.cancerimagingarchive.net/nbia-api/services.
| Note | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
To access National Lung Screening Trial (NLST) data, get the authentication token from https://nlst.cancerimagingarchive.net/nbia-api/oauth/token, then use https://nlst.cancerimagingarchive.net/nbia-api/services/ to make REST API calls. |

| BaseURL | |
| Resource | /nbia-api/services |
| Endpoint | getBodyPartValuesAndCounts |
| Query Parameters | Modality=PT |
...
All APIs return results in JSON format except for the Thumbnail API (JPG), Manifest Text API (TXT), and Series Metadata 2 API (CSV).
Secure Access to NBIA REST Services
Access to any NBIA Advanced REST API requires a token that you must request.
...
This token can then be used on subsequent requests to authorize access to resources. This token will expire in two hours but you can refresh it.
The NBIA REST API supports secure access to private data in the Client Credentials authorization flow with Spring Security and OAuth2. The Client Credentials authorization flow is also known as "signed fetch" or 2-legged OAuth. The following figure illustrates the typical use case for REST API calls made on the web using 2-legged OAuth. For more information regarding the specific workflow, consult the OAuth2 Specification.
...
Figure 1: Client Credentials Flow
This flow includes the following steps:
- The client authenticates with the authorization server and requests an access token from the token endpoint.
- The authorization server authenticates the client, and if valid, issues an access token.
This token can then be used on subsequent requests to authorize access to resources. The NBIA Advanced REST API server also supports token expiration and extension by refresh. The time it takes tokens to expire is currently two hours but is configurable.
To access TCIA using an NBIA Advanced REST API, you must do the following:
Requesting a Token
Access to any NBIA Advanced REST API requires an authentication token. You must contact the TCIA Help Desk to receive the client_id and client_secret needed to generate a token.
Requesting a Token
Access to any NBIA Advanced REST API requires an access token. A request for an access token takes the following structure. Note that USER should be your TCIA username and PASSWORD should be your TCIA password.
Note: To accommodate special characters in passwords, use double quotes on Windows and single quotes on Mac and LinuxA request for a token takes the following structure. Refer to the table below for the correct username and password to pass in the call.
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
curl -v -d "username=<username>USER&password=<password>PASSWORD&client_id=<theClientIDFromHelpDesk>NBIA&clientgrant_secret=<theClientSecretFromHelpDesk>&grant_type=type=password" -X POST -k https://services.cancerimagingarchive.net/nbia-api/oauth/token |
...
If you don't have a TCIA account, you can access public data using the "nbia_guest" account with no password, as follows.
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
curl -v -d "username=nbia_guest&password=&client_id=NBIA&grant_type=password" -k https://services.cancerimagingarchive.net/nbia-api/oauth/token |
How a Token is Returned/Granted/Given
A successful token request returns a standard access token in JSON format. The value after "access_token" will be longer than this example.
Request a token by interacting with the application in the following way.
- The application requests credentials. The credentials you pass are different depending on if you want to access public or restricted data (see above).
The application sends a request to the service using the credentials you provided as a query string for the body.
- grant_type=password
- username
- password
The service responds with access token details and expiration information.
- access_token
- expires_in
- token_type
The application makes a request for resources using the returned access token. All APIs listed for accessing public data also support secure access to restricted data with an additional parameter for the access token.
How a Token is Returned/Granted/Given
A successful token request returns a standard access token in JSON format.
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
{"access_token":"f7889076cd2b2895-b3e485d0-476849c5-9419bd75-3cd973adda76804f162da942","tokenexpires_typein":"bearer"7200,"refresh_expires_in":7200,"refresh_token":"eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCIgO","not-before-policy":"671bb72b-f929-4ef5-a4d7-b52341a6007a","expires_in":7199} |
...
0,"session_state":"92a199c6-84ed-48aa-a0d2-059bbb99bc90","scope":"openid profile email"} |
Make a note of the access token you received and pass it with the REST service call.
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
# Request for modality values and counts curl -H "Authorization:Bearer c428d42ccd2b2895-9eed85d0-4f5d49c5-8007bd75-416d46be9b52804f162da942" -k "https://services.cancerimagingarchive.net/nbia-api/services/getModalityValuesAndCounts?Collection=LIDC-IDRI" |
A successful service request returns the value in a defined format.
...
Refreshing the Token
The time it takes tokens to expire is configurable but is currently two hoursYou can refresh your access token for an additional two hours by passing the refresh token from your original token request.
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
# Request for refreshing the token $ curl -X -v -d "refresh_token=7c2414a1-1f2f-4c9e-82a0-69fcb9fd18ed& "client_id=nbiaRestAPIClient&client_secret=ItsBetweenUAndMenbia&grant_type=refresh_token" &refresh_token=YOUR_REFRESH_TOKEN" -X POST -k https://servicesnbia.cancerimagingarchive.net/nbia-api/oauth/token /nbia-api/oauth/token" |
In the following result, 119 is 7200 is the seconds before the token expires.
| Code Block | ||

Body Part Values and Counts API
The Body Part Values and Counts API returns the modality values and body part count for the modality. It optionally takes the following parameters.
- Collection
- Modality
Example Body Part Values and Counts Query
The request does not return any values.
Accessing the National Lung Screening Trial (NLST) collection
Due to its size, the National Lung Screening Trial (NLST) collection lives on a separate NBIA server. Since this server only holds the public NLST collection, there is no reason to create an API token with your own credentials. To access these data via the Advanced REST API, you must change the URL to obtain the authentication token from https://nlst.cancerimagingarchive.net/nbia-api/oauth/token. You can then use https://nlst

Drill Down to Images API
The Drill Down to Images API allows the developer to drill down to the images in a series and have the information available to create a WADO call that can retrieve the images themselves. This API is used to create the Thumbnails screen in the portal.
The API takes a list of series to query, using the parameter "list," that repeats for each series for which you want to retrieve images.
