Teaching File Creation with MIRC Using MIRC for Departmental Teaching Files Adam E. Flanders, MD Thomas Jefferson University Hospital Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Segment Objectives Features of a digital teaching file. n The MIRC solution n MIRC authoring. n
What is a Teaching File? An organized repository of clinical images and documentation. n Used primarily to supplement learning process for trainees. n Source material for lectures, publications. n Film library model n Shelves of cases (film jackets) n Organized by anatomy, disease, ACR codes. n
What are the Qualities of a “Great” Radiology Teaching File ü ü High quality Images Comprehensive supplemental Information: ü ü ü ü path reports, path images, discussion etc. Organization Indexed and searchable Fresh content. Easily accessed from anywhere. Easy to navigate. Secure
Problems with Film-Based TF n n Limited access. Typically, a lot of work to submit a case. n n Difficult to keep organized. n n n Difficult to solicit “voluntary” contributions. Missing or misfiled cases or films. Need a librarian/policeman Securing files = limited access. Searching file is problematic. Inconvenient to use for decision support. Difficult to update/maintain – keeping material current.
Analog to Digital Transformation Inexpensive digital cameras / scanners. n Retirement of hard copy (film) n Proliferation of PACS. n Proliferation of workstations. n
Digitizing Analog Images
Digitizing Analog Images Digital Camera on PACS or Viewbox Laborious but effective!
Personal Image Storage Solutions
Digitized Images: Big Step Forward! n Advantages n n n Lightweight and reusable No deterioration, loss, resistant to theft. Modifiable Easy to adjust, crop, contrast, brightness Easy to add annotation. Problems n n Access remained limited. Organization! Large collections, difficult to find images without meticulous labeling methods Sharing material?
Where to Put Your Images? - Personal DTF n n Copy images into folders labeled appropriately. Nested file structure Need to open content in another application for use. Not very versatile
Personal Teaching Files n n n n Thousands of radiologists have amassed “personal” collections of images. Solutions include cases on email, upload of cases to free digital photo services (ie Google, Flikr, Picassa, Shutterfly etc. ) Generally used by a single user. Accessible from a single computer Image collections are limited in scope. Difficult to enhance content. Not readily sharable
Personal DTF Organization with Picassa
The Next Phase n n Web browser is the most appropriate vehicle for delivery of educational content. Browsers are designed to display written and visual content efficiently. Including multimedia. Early DTF contained “static” web pages. n n n Laborious to produce. Time consuming to update and index. Modern DTF coupled to a database generates content dynamically (“on-the-fly”). n n Easier to modify More conducive to search mechanisms
Components of a Modern DTF Fileserver n Database n Webserver n Fileserver Database Ethernet Webserver
What Do People Want? Radiologists want a simple method to create teaching materials from their existing PACS systems. n Ease of use n Time efficient n Simple to access n Scalable in terms of size & complexity. n
What Is Available NOW? n Commercial turnkey systems available for a price which will provide: Method to save images & data from PACS. n Storage local or off-site for your cases n Web server to display cases n Organizational repositories (e. g. ACR Case-In-Point, Aunt Minnie, My. PACS etc. ) n You can develop your own… n Or there is MIRC!!!! n
What Does The MIRC Software Suite Do For Me? Medical Imaging Resource Center
Da’ Answer Set of software tools that allow you to create, index, search and display teaching materials. n Repository for educational content. n n n Including peer review content (via RSNA).

Scalability of MIRC n n MIRC has the unique ability to scale from one computer / one user to many computers / many users. Potential configurations include: n n n One MIRC repository for one or more users. Multiple MIRC repositories in one or many institutions. Software enables development of cooperative libraries. n Each library is individually administered yet portions can be made accessible to all.
MIRC supports all information storage formats. n Images: DICOM, GIF, JPEG, PNG n Hyperlinks to other web content. n Virtually any content that is displayable in a web browser. n Pointers to other files for downloading. n Display support for other types in the future…
MIRC TF Configuration Scenarios n Private Mode n Departmental Mode n Division Mode n Worldwide Mode n Variations
MIRC TF Scenarios Private (selfish) Mode n n n Single-user contributor Single-user access No sharing of content My Stuff
MIRC TF Scenarios Divisional / Semi-Private Mode n n n Each division or key individual maintains a server. Division is responsible for maintaining their content. All or a portion of content can be made public. Any individual can access public records on other MIRC servers within institution. Much more difficult to administer.
n n n n Multiple users or divisions contribute to a single departmental MIRC server. All users have controlled access. All can view public cases. Only owners can modify data. Private cases are supported. One server to manage for all content. Easier to administer. MIRC TF Scenarios Departmental Mode Neuro MSK Neuro NM Chest Mammo CT Body MR Mammo CVIR MSK Private BIG MIRC User
MIRC TF Scenarios Worldwide Mode Internet n n Multiple MIRC sites (“MIRClets”) expose content to the Internet. This public content is accessible to other computers that can perform a query of MIRC content.
The MIRC Authoring Process
Four Ways to Author Basic authoring tool. n Advanced authoring tool. n Submit Service n ZIP Service n
Three Kinds of Authoring n Point-of-care n. Bookmarking n Retrospective n Combination
Getting Images to MIRC
Storing Images in MIRC software was designed to utilize common features available by most PACS vendors to export images. DICOM SCU/SCP (i. e. DICOM export) n Saving images locally to PACS desktop or folder (subdirectory) n n Images are uploaded to the MIRC file service in one of three ways:
Storing Images in MIRC n 3 Methods DICOM export n Upload single image n Upload multiple files (using ZIP archive) PACS n DICOM Export ZIP File Single Image
MIRC File Service Individualized file browser for each registered user Container for images. File Service Function Buttons n Two File Storage Areas n • Add Files Public • Delete Files n Private • Update Name n Other File Types by Name Can • Find Transfer Files Between Public • Export File to Desktop and • Private Repositories. Copy to Public (shared files) Native DICOM n Delete, Add or Update files to. Support the File Service. n
n n n From DICOM SCP or copied from personal file cabinets Files in the shared file cabinet are available to all users. Select one or more images. Copy to personal file cabinet. Begin submission process.
ZIP Service Method to convert an existing teaching file system to MIRC from a conventional teaching file hierarchy. n This will bulk convert all your images that are in folders in a hierarchical structure to MIRC. n Supplement information as needed. n Is a great way to get started with MIRC! n
TCE Service n n n The TCE service is an implementation from the Teaching Files and Clinical Trials Export Integration Profile from IHE. Brings point-of-care authoring to all PACs users. Enables one to author teaching file cases directly from PACS. n n Select key images. Add pre-defined text elements. Submit directly to your MIRC service. This closes the loop for efficient authoring.
TCE Service n Four PACS vendors support and have working demonstrations of the TCE export profile at RSNA 2006 & 2007. Agfa n Fuji n GE n Vital Images n n Come see the demonstration in LLC and in technical exhibits area on a real PACS system.
Powerpoint Tool n n There is a handy (free) Powerpoint add-in which will take an entire presentation and convert each slide to a MIRC TF document. Many people use Powerpoint as their teaching file repository; this is another way to convert to MIRC. Add-in has been revised, is easy to use and install. Available on the MIRC Wiki.
MIRC Wiki All of the MIRC documentation has been uploaded to a new Wiki site which is easy to navigate and search. n All docs and downloads available there. n

MIRCFiles 2008 n n RSNA is offering to all members an open MIRC repository to store all of your materials. Utilizes the MIRC software. Any RSNA member can use it for FREE! Gives you an opportunity to “kick-the-tires” before you commit to building your own.
What About PACS Interfaces? MIRC software is vendor neutral. n Therefore it tries to adhere to existing or upcoming standards. n The TCE profile is getting more attention from PACS vendors. n This will allow you to send directly from PACS using key images. n n Obviate the need to open a web browser to author cases.
More Information n Check out the MIRC Wiki: n http: //mircwiki. rsna. org Look over your handout & syllabus. n A full installation of MIRC software with documentation is on the CDs. n
