PICNIC: Portal-based Platform for MRI Processing of Neurodegenerative Diseases

摘要

The use of medical image processing techniques is increasing, especially those applied to the early diagnosis of diseases, like neurodegenerative diseases. The software tools involved in it, are sometimes hard to use for medical researchers and hospitals don't have neither the hardware resources nor the personnel expertise, to accomplish the requirements. With these necessities born PICNIC, a technological hardware-software platform with a web portal interface that integrates MRI processing tools with a user-friendly interface, a database to manage clinical data and other services like the de-identification, visualization images and job's monitoring.
