Imaging and Response Assessment Core (IRAC)

LEADERSHIP: Barry Siegel, MD and Marilyn Siegel, MD

The Imaging and Response Assessment Core (IRAC) is a shared resource (SR) that focuses on accurate and reproducible assessment of imaging-based measurements in clinical cancer research at Siteman Cancer Center (SCC). The IRAC assists in building imaging science into institutional clinical research early in project development, thus capitalizing on the use of imaging biomarkers of tumor response to provide critical information for optimum management and interpretation of therapeutic trials. The IRAC also provides support services, including coordinator services, regulatory support, and standard image-based response assessments, to facilitate reliable use of imaging in cancer clinical trials.

LOCATION: Please contact this shared resource directly for physical location.

PRICING: Please contact the core for current pricing of services offered.

IRAC Service Expectations Information

NIH PUBLIC ACCESS POLICY: As of April 7, 2008, the NIH requires investigators with a publication using Siteman (or other NIH-funded) shared resources to submit (or have submitted for them) their final, peer reviewed manuscripts to PubMed Central(PMC) upon acceptance of publication, to be made publicly available within 12 months of publication. Many journals automatically submit these for authors, but Washington University also has assistance available through the Becker Medical Library. Please see this resource for more information.

PUBLICATION ACKNOWLEDGEMENT: If research supported by the Imaging and Response Assessment Core results in publication, please acknowledge this support by including the following in your publication(s):

We thank the Alvin J. Siteman Cancer Center at Washington University School of Medicine and Barnes-Jewish Hospital in St. Louis, MO., for the use of the Imaging and Response Assessment Core, which provided __________ service. The Siteman Cancer Center is supported in part by an NCI Cancer Center Support Grant #P30 CA091842.

Users without established funding are encouraged to apply for JIT funding through the ICTS.
