the Genomic Data Commons (GDC) Data Portal while the radiological data is stored on The Cancer Imaging Archive (TCIA). |
Matched The data utilizes the same TCGA patient identifiers in both repositories, allowing allow researchers to explore the TCGA/TCIA databases for correlations between tissue genotype and , radiological phenotype . This Collection within TCIA is related to the BRCA disease type within TCGA.and patient outcomes. Tissues for TCGA were collected from many sites all over the world in order to reach their accrual targets, usually around 500 specimens per cancer type. For this reason the image data sets are also extremely heterogeneous in terms of scanner modalities, manufacturers and acquisition protocols. In most cases the images were acquired as part of routine care and not as part of a controlled research study or clinical trial.
CIP TCGA Radiology Initiative
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.

Note: Per TCGA Guidelines, formal permission requests are still required for publications using TCGA-BRCA data. More info about TCGA Publication Policies can be found on the Data Usage Policies and Restrictions page.
CIP TCGA Radiology Initiative
The Cancer Imaging Program has begun multiple projects to collaborate with the academic community to encourage cross disciplinary research which utilizes the data provided in these resources. Much more can be learned about this effort on the TCGA-BRCA Phenotype Research Group page.
