All CT images are avaliable to NLST investigators with approved access to NLST data and images. The chest X-rays are not available. Subsets of the CT images may be obtained in any of three two ways:
- Request from IMS. Petition IMS for images associated with an NCI-approved project. IMS notfies The Cancer Imaging Archive (TCIA) management with a list of images to provide. TCIA pulls the images to an external hard drive (provided by the investigator) , and ships the images to the investigator.
- Request with Query Tool. The investigator uses the Query Tool to select non-image trial data, then requests a download of those CT images associated with that data.Request via TCIA. The investigator may access the CT images directly via TCIA and download the images with TCIA's Download Manager. This method had limited filtering when choosing images and, thus, may not be the best way to acquire copies of the images.
Access to Trial Data and Images via the Cancer Data Access System (CDAS) at IMS
