DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Project Summary Abstract The Advanced Imaging Research Center (AIRC) at OHSU is involved in fundamental MRI research, with an emphasis on dynamic contrast studies, diffusion tensor imaging and the molecular origins of MRI contrast. The AIRC operates four research-dedicated MRI instruments. A 30 cm bore 12T system for animal studies, a Siemens 7T whole body scanner and two Siemens 3T instruments. One 3T scanner is situated on the Oregon National Primate Research Center campus, which is located about ten miles west of the main OHSU campus. The data collected by an eclectic community of researchers within OHSU amounts to 3 terabytes per year and is projected to grow over the next five years. The current use and projected growth clearly calls for a high end research- dedicated DICOM data storage system to meet the needs of AIRC investigators and the community of OHSU scientists that it serves. This equipment grant application requests funds for a Candelis ImageGrid-10 PACS appliance to enable the AIRC to meet its current and projected image storage and retrieval needs. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Research performed at the AIRC has a direct relevance on a large number of issues relating to public health which include improved diagnostic imaging of breast cancer, studies of brain aging and the relationship between aging and neurological disorders, normal brain vascular physiology, dynamic contrast MRI and its application to tumor prognosis and treatment assessment, development of improved animal models of human disease, early differentiation of brain neuronal connectivity patterns and brain chemistry of alcoholism.

描述（由申请人提供）：项目摘要摘要OHSU的高级成像研究中心（AIRC）参与基础MRI研究，重点是动态对比研究，扩散张量成像和MRI对比的分子起源。AIRC操作四个研究专用的MRI仪器。用于动物研究的30 cm孔径12 T系统，Siemens 7 T全身扫描仪和两台Siemens 3 T仪器。一台3 T扫描仪位于俄勒冈州国家灵长类动物研究中心园区，该园区位于OHSU主园区以西约十英里处。OHSU内的一个折衷的研究人员社区收集的数据每年达到3 TB，预计在未来五年内还会增长。目前的使用和预计的增长显然需要一个高端的研究专用DICOM数据存储系统，以满足AIRC调查人员和OHSU科学家社区的需求。该设备赠款申请要求为Candelis ImageGrid-10 PACS设备提供资金，以使AIRC能够满足其当前和预计的图像存储和检索需求。 公共卫生相关性：在AIRC进行的研究与大量与公共卫生有关的问题直接相关，其中包括改善乳腺癌的诊断成像，研究大脑老化和老化与神经系统疾病之间的关系，正常的脑血管生理学，动态对比MRI及其在肿瘤预后和治疗评估中的应用，开发改进的人类疾病动物模型，大脑神经元连接模式的早期分化和酒精中毒的大脑化学。
