  1. The CardioVascular Research Grid:A Resource Supporting National Collaborations in Heart ResearchNHLBI R24 HL085343Raimond L. WinslowThe Johns Hopkins UniversityInstitute for Computational Medicine

  2. Needs of the CV Community • Need to describe both CV data and data collection methods • CV-specific ontologies • Semantic description facilitates re-use of data • Need standards-based representation and management of multi-scale CV data • There are unique CV data types for which no standards exist • Time-evolving EP, ECG, and multi-modal image data • Need to query across multiple types of primary and derived data located and maintained at different sites • data federation, federated querying

  3. The CardioVascular Research Grid (CVRG) Project is Addressing These Needs • The CVRG is a community resource for the distributed management, semantic description, federation, and analysis of bothprimary and derived CV data • CVRG is • developing new CV-specific data management resources • delivering CV data analysis tools and customized workflows • creating easy to use, customized web interfaces for accessing our resources • providing these resources in a secure manner

  4. The CVRG Approach to Technology Development • Don’t re-invent the wheel • When possible, re-use or extend software components from other BioGrid projects (e.g., caBIG and BIRN) • caBIG = cancer Biomedical Informatics Grid • BIRN = Biomedical Informatics Research Network • Address the special needs of the CV community • Time-evolving imagery • ECG and EP data • CV-specific vocabularies • Integration of multi-scale data sets • Specific data analysis workflows • Assure that the CV community drives technology development

  10. ECG Data Management and Analysis:An Example of Novel Tool Development • Problem • ECGs are the most common type of biomedical time-series data • Typically, only data derived from ECG analysis is stored • Primary data is not always saved • When saved, often difficult to collect, may be in image or paper format • Data is difficult for clinical researchers to analyze • Challenges: • There is no comprehensive data model or database implementation for managing digital ECG data • There is no ECG ontology available for use in annotation • Few web-based ECG analysis tools • Solution: • Develop these resources

  12. CV DICOM Image Data Management:An Example of Re-Use & Extension of caBIG Tools • Problem: • Imaging (MR, CT, echo, and ultrasound) is becoming increasingly important in the assessment of heart disease. • Data often collected at multiple sites, must be shared • Challenges: • Images are usually stored as files (not searchable) • Local image data are sometimes managed using a PACs • It is difficult to manage local PACS client connections to remote PACS • Investigators want full control of data access • Solution • Use/extend existing image management tools developed in caBIG

Statistical Inference on Disease-Induced Heart Shape Changes New Patient Heart H1 Global Average Heart Hav T(H1) Hav (preserves dot products and norms) Class 1 = ischemic cardiomyopathy Class 2 = non-ischemic cardiomyopathy Is the transformation T( ) from class 1? If yes, then ischemic cardiomyopathy Else non-ischemic cardiomyopathy

  18. Ontologies: • Emerging Strategy • When ontologies/data services are available from caBIG, we will use them. These ontologies & services are also available to BIRN • Develop new ontologies that are of special importance in CV research • Cardiovascular Electrophysiology Ontology • Version 1 complete • ECG Ontology • Version 1 nearing completion • Cardiovascular Imaging Ontologies • Beginning stages, with the National Alliance for Medical Image Computing (NAMIC) • Deposit new CV ontologies at the National Center for Biomedical Ontologies (NCBO), and also work to harmonize terms with the NCI Thesaurus/Meta-Thesaurus • These ontologies will then be available for use by BIRN and caBIG

  19. Collaboration With the CVRG Project • CVRG Collaboration Proposals (PAR-07-426, as amended in NOT-08-103) • Development of a Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Consortium (Abraham) • Federation and Analysis of MESA Genetic and Imaging Data Using the CVRG (Lima) • Data Ontologies for Integrating Cardiovascular Epidemiological Studies (Rice) • Final LOI August 21 2009, final proposal submission September 21 2009 • One BRP collaboration proposal submitted • CardioVascular Imaging Informatics (CVRG & NAMIC Collaboration, PI = Kikinis) • NCBO Driving Biological Project • Ontology-Based Annotation of Biomedical Time-Series Data (Winslow) • Physionet (analytic services) • Site beta testers (request account on CVRG portal) • Contact us regarding new DBPs (rwinslow@jhu.edu) • Working Groups, Conference on CardioVascular Informatics
