The Cancer Imaging Program (CIP) is working directly with primary investigators from institutes participating in TCGA to obtain and load images with the TCGA GBM tissue-contributing institutions to obtain the pre-surgical diagnostic MRIs of the genetically-analyzed cases whose genetic data resides in the TCGA portal]. These images with their TCGA identifier tags relating to the genomic, clinical, and pathological data being stored within the TCGA Data Portal.  Currently this large MR multi-sequence image collection of pre-surgical glioblastoma patients can be matched by each unique case identifier with the extensive gene and expression data of the same case from the Cancer Genome Atlas Data Portal to research the link between clinical phenome and tissue genome.  Over time it is expected to grow in diversity, including other tumor types that are being collected as part of the funded TCGA activities.
