Context
As part of a RHU (5-year university hospital research) program with the Nantes University Hospital: RHU eCAN
Coordinated by the Nantes University Hospital, the eCAN University Hospital Research project (RHU eCAN) aims to reduce the overall impact of intracranial aneurysms by creating health tools dedicated to radiologists, patients, experts in charge of these patients, and regulatory authorities. The ambition of the eCAN project is to change the trajectory of patients with intracranial aneurysms and improve its medico-economic impact in the various health systems.
The objective is to operate and develop on a dedicated cloud infrastructure (Shanoir+VIP) for the storage and processing of medical images.
Shanoir (SHAring iN vivO Imaging Resources) is a web platform that allows the sharing of in-vivo medical images, with their metadata, for clinical and preclinical research. The origin of the software is neuroimaging, but the platform is now perfectly usable for all types of organs and pathologies. Shanoir allows the import of "raw" data from different acquisition methods: DICOM (MR, CT, PT, NM), Bruker (preclinical), EEG (EDF + BrainVision) and "processed" data: NIfTI. Shanoir-NG is a "cloud native" web application developed with Angular, Spring Boot 3 and Docker.
VIP is a web platform for image processing. In collaboration with the VIP team (Creatis, CNRS, Lyon), Shanoir and VIP are used to store and process images in pairs.
