Excerpt

The TCGA Renal Phenotype Research Group is part of the CIP TCGA Radiology Initiative. This activity is currently in the early stage of development focused on analyzing images from the TCGA-KIRC collection (coming soon). Multiple modalities of images which correlate to the kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) data in the TCGA Data Portal are currently being gathered for submission to TCIA. In the mean time the group is beginning preliminary discussions around research methods and goals.

Starting or Joining a Research Project

We are currently hosting calls in support of TCGA renal based research projects (TCGA-KIRC) on Fridays at 1pm Eastern. Please contact us at cancerimagingarchive@mail.nih.gov if you would like to inquire about setting up a new research project, discuss potential collaborations with existing groups or be otherwise kept in the loop as this effort moves forward.

Group Projects

This is a listing of ongoing projects.  Feel free to join one of our teleconferences to tell us about how you intend to use this data and discuss how we might be able to collaborateIf you are working with the TCGA glioma data hosted on TCIA please let us know and we would be happy to add a section describing your project here.

  • Renal Image Feature Scoring - This project is in the preliminary stages and is being collaborated on by group members from MSKCC, MDACC, and UPMC.

Data Providers

We would like to thank the following institutions for contributing images to the TCGA-GBM collection utilized in this research project:

  • MSKCC (in progress)
  • UPMC (in progress)
  • MDACC (in progress)Multiple readers are evaluating each subject's imaging features using a consensus driven Renal Feature Key and then investigating potential correlations with the TCGA genomic and clinical data.
