As an opportunity to leverage this wealth of new biomedical knowledge, CIP used its agreements with TCGA Tissue Site Source institutions to collect clinical diagnostic images for TCIA that match genomically analyzed tissue cases in the 20-plus cancer types that TCGA has characterized.

PoliciesGuidelines
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.
There are no limitations on publications containing analyses using TCGA-linked imaging data sets, if the data set meets one of the following three freedom-to-publish criteria:

The specific status of each tumor data set is available belowon the Data Usage Policies and Restrictions page. Do not hesitate to contact cancerimagingarchive@mail.nih.gov with 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.
