Open source image analytics and data mining software are widely available but can be overly-complicated and non-intuitive for medical physicians and researchers to use. The ASU-Mayo Clinic Imaging Informatics Lab has developed an in-house pipeline to process medical images, extract imaging features, and develop multi-parametric models to assist disease staging and diagnosis. The tools have been extensively used in a number of medical studies including brain tumor, breast cancer, liver cancer, Alzheimer's disease, and migraine. Recognizing the need from users in the medical field for a simplified interface and streamlined functionalities, this project aims to democratize this pipeline so that it is more readily available to health practitioners and third party developers.
