being gathered for submission to The Cancer Imaging Archive (TCIA). |
According to the TCGA page on lung adenocarcinomaLUAD, researchers hope to make the following types of discoveries about lung adenocarcinoma ( LUAD ) and lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC):
- Pinpoint gene changes that divide squamous and adenocarcinoma tumors into molecular subgroups.
- Distinguish patterns of gene changes between adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinomaLUAD and LUSC.
- Distinguish genomic changes between smokers and non-smokers.
Research and Publications
Per TCGA and TCIA Guidelines, formal permission requests are still required to submit publications using TCGA-LUAD data. Please see the following links for more information about the freedom-to-publish criteria for these data sets:
Data Source | Status |
---|---|
No restrictions; all data available without limitations. | |
Projects have not reached 100 imaging cases; Please please check with cancerimagingarchive@mail.nih.gov with help@cancerimagingarchive.net prior to any publication. |
Please contact us at cancerimagingarchive@mailhelp@cancerimagingarchive.nih.govnet if you have any questions about these policies.

Imaging Source Site (ISS) Groups will be 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, these ISS groups are given the opportunity to publish a marker paper for a given cancer type per the aforementioned publication policy. It is hoped that this type per the guidelines in the table above. This opportunity will generate increased participation in the building of these multi-institutional data sets that as they become an open community resource. Current Current TCGA-LUAD source sites include:

This group has not yet been established. We will provide a point of contact for the group from the ISS site(s) as soon as possible to address scientific questions or requests to collaborate with their group.
