Incidental Finding Report Tool

Incidental Finding Report Tool

** IMPORTANT REMINDER: You may only submit images for incidental finding review if you have this explicitly described in your approved IRB protocol and in your consent form. **

1. Create a folder and put in all your images and movie files you want to send to the radiologist. Please circle the area where you consider an anomaly.

* The images should include T1 and T2, and are saved in png or jpeg/jpg formats.

* (Optional) You can create a movie from MRI images using CCN script: gen_movie.py

* Name your folder contains all the files with your lab name and subject ID. 

2. Compress the folder with zip, and make sure it's named with your lab name+subject ID.

* The compressed file should end with ".zip"

3. Upload the zip file to the Box folder, “CCN_report/YOURGROUP”, which should be shared with your lab.

* Before you upload the files, please make sure the images and videos are in good quality so the radiologist can make the correct decision based on it.

If your lab does not have a Box group folder shared by us, please contact the following so we can set one up for you.

What will happen after you upload the zip file:

Our script will check the Box folder once a day and if there’s a new zip file, it will unzip it and then send an email to the radiologist with the images attached.

It will also send the link of the movie file.
