Using role-based security, NBIA provides web-based access to de-identified DICOM images, image markup, annotations, and rich metadata. The NBIA download package is a ZIP package that includes the NBIA application, supporting libraries, the RSNA MIRC application (with NBIA modifications), documentation, and a sample NBIA databaseidentify DICOM images.

Along with the Clinical Trial Processor software from the Radiological Society of North America, NBIA supports customized de-identification of images. NBIA is able to integrate with other applications through a set of APIs. For more information, see the NBIA REST API User GuideNBIA DICOM API User's Guide, and NBIA WADO API User's Guide

NCI's hosted instance of NBIA provides researchers and clinicians with a demonstration of a robust DICOM archive that can securely share and access images to enhance scientific research and support clinical decision making. Anyone can deploy a local instance of NBIA, which you can customize to your organization's branding.

Installation and Downloads

Before installing NBIA, you must download and install Java SE Development Kit 8, Apache Ant, MySQL, and Tomcat, and set environmental variables. Refer to Chapters 3 and 4 of the NBIA Installation Guide for details.
