The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) Breast Phenotype Research Group is part of the Cancer Imaging Program (CIP) TCGA Radiology Initiative focused on analyzing images from the TCGA-BRCA collection. These images correlate to the Breast Invasive Carcinoma (BRCA) data in the TCGA Data Portal. |
According to TCGA’s page on invasive breast cancers, researchers have:
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, ISS groups are given the opportunity to publish a marker paper for a given cancer type per the guidelines in the table below. This opportunity will generate increased participation in building these multi-institutional data sets as they become an open community resource. Current TCGA-BRCA source sites include:
The ISS group has also been collaborating with the University of Chicago to conduct quantitative MRI phenotyping efforts. Please contact Dr. Elizabeth Morris (morrise@mskcc.org) if you have scientific questions for TCGA-BRCA ISS or are interested in collaborating with their group.
