General description

The Medical Imaging and Data Resource Center (MIDRC) is a collaboration of leading medical imaging organizations launched in response to the COVID-19 pandemic designed to develop a high-quality repository for medical images related to acute and long-term COVID-19 and associated clinical data.

MIDRC is disease agnostic, open to all medical imaging datasets, and continues to build and expand its artificial intelligence-ready data commons to fuel machine intelligence research. Furthermore, MIDRC is a high-quality date commons that adheres to the FAIR principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Re-usable) in a bid to leverage existing infrastructure.

An important focus of the MIDRC data commons is to develop interoperability strategies with other (non-imaging) data commons so that users can link imaging data (including the metadata available in MIDRC) with more extensive electronic health record data available in other repositories.
