Text

The Imaging Core is centered at National Jewish and works on a collaborative basis with the Iowa Comprehensive Lung Imaging Center at the University of Iowa and imaging staff at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital. Research assistants log receipt of images, perform quality control analysis, coordinate required readings, and assist with quantitative analysis. De-identified images are submitted on DVDs to the Image Core in DICOM format, using a study ID as the only identifier.
