This guide explains how to use the administrative features of NBIA.

Administration Functions Overview

Security applies to all administration tools in NBIA. When you log into NBIA, only the administration tools for which you have been granted permissions are visible in the Admin menu. Their use is described on this page.

Creating a New NBIA User

Only an NBIA administrator can create new users for NBIA.

Before NBIA users can be created, an administrator with access to the User Authorization Tool must register the NCIA application and assign an admin user to the NCIA application there. The administrator can then assign users to NBIA and roles to each user. The following table describes the role structure in NBIA.

The roles you assign allow a user to perform tasks in TCIA. Additionally, an administrator can perform the following tasks:

• Assign a user right to use the QC tool for the purpose of reviewing submitted imaging data and managing visibility status for the data. See Using the Quality Control Tool.
• Verify submitted files. This includes the permission to view the image submission report which includes submission statistics and information regarding what has been received by the image repositories. See Viewing Submission Reports.
• Configure security for data submitted to TCIA. For more information, see Configuring Security for Submitted Data.

For more information about creating new TCIA users/user groups and performing other tasks in the User Authorization Tool, see the User Authorization Tool documentation.
