NOTE: On 12/3/12 TCIA staff were alerted to the fact that the middle 2 digits in the patient identifiers of images were not consistent with those on the TCGA Data Portal.  E.g. patient TCGA-93-Z011 should have been TCGA-17-Z011. This was corrected and the data was re-posted on 12/5/12 so that all subjects now have 17 as intended.

The TCGA data portal has extensive clinical and genomic data which can be matched to the patient identifiers of the images here in TCIA.  Here are just a sample of some of the clinical data types available:

bcr_patient_barcode,age_at_initial_pathologic_diagnosis,days_to_birth,days_to_death,days_to_form_completion,days_to_initial_pathologic_diagnosis,
days_to_last_followup,days_to_last_known_alive,distant_metastasis_pathologic_spread,drugs,eastern_cancer_oncology_group,erythrocyte_sedimentation_rate_result,
gender,hemoglobin_result,histological_type,informed_consent_verified,karnofsky_performance_score,lactate_dehydrogenase_result,laterality,
lymphnode_pathologic_spread,lymphnodes_examined_prior_presentation,number_of_lymphnodes_examined,number_of_lymphnodes_positive,performance_status_scale_timing,
person_neoplasm_cancer_status,platelet_qualitative_result,pretreatment_history,primary_tumor_pathologic_spread,prior_diagnosis,radiations,serum_calcium_result,
tumor_grade,tumor_stage,tumor_tissue_site,vital_status,white_cell_count_result,year_of_initial_pathologic_diagnosis
