Core facility that provides the following services: Reporting and database management service of radiological data for clinical trials, Radiologic exam quality control service.

The mission of the Tumor Imaging Metrics Core (TIMC) is to provide standardized, consistent, longitudinal radiological measurements to evaluate therapeutic response for DF/HCC clinical trials. The TIMC - * Makes reliable, quantitative, longitudinal measurements (such as RECIST, WHO, SWOG, standardized uptake value (SUV) etc.) of lesions from serial MRI, CT, PET, and PET/CT scan images * Presents results of analyses on a password-protected secure web-based report * Provides an independent service, with verifiable measurement of treatment response for patients enrolled in cancer center trials * Serves as a centralized, computerized resource to facilitate efficient internal or external auditing Reliable tracking of changes in lesion size or metabolism is essential for clinical trials that use radiological measurements as surrogate endpoints. The Tumor Imaging Metrics Core provides a service for managing these images, making measurements in a routine, reliable, and centralized way, and making results available to investigators efficiently.

The Rodent Histopathology Core was founded in 1999 as one of the pathology cores within the Dana-Farber/Harvard Cancer Center. The Core was established to provide high quality professional, technical, and educational pathology services. The ultimate goal of the facility has been to support investigator research that leads to the identification of pathologic processes in mice and can be directly translatable to human disease. The core provides an essential and unique service to the many Center members and labs invested in mouse research. While many commercial and academic histology services are available, no other service is available that offers comparable high quality service with rapid turn around time and highly experienced professional supervision. The educational mission of the Core also adds an important dimension.

PSL is a consultative Core with components in each of the five DF/HCC hospitals. We have established a web-based network of autonomous, distributed, searchable databases, which contain de-identified, coded, pathologic information on post-diagnostic, excess human materials (including frozen or paraffin-embedded tissues and bodily fluids). Standardized specimen core dataset includes age, gender, anatomic location, tissue type, and diagnoses. Access to the PSL is through the password-protected Harvard eCommons. Two types of generic PSL uses are envisioned: (1) Center members with eCommons accounts can quickly retrieve aggregated tissue availability information to determine the feasibility of a proposed study. (2) Approved investigators can discover and review materials from suitable, de-identified and coded cases online and then request the samples they want.

The primary mission of the Biostatistics Shared Resource (BSR) is to improve the statistical aspects of cancer research at Dartmouth by providing expert statistical collaboration for research projects of Cancer Center members. Because every aspect of cancer research involves data, all research programs potentially may require the participation of the BSR. Areas of special faculty expertise include clinical trial design, longitudinal data, statistical methods for genomics and managing data, measurement error methods, nonlinear dose response modeling, quality of life data, decision sciences, cost effectiveness analysis, and diagnostic test assessment. Faculty and staff offices are located on the 8th floor of the Rubin building at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center (DHMC). The BSR maintains an extensive statistical software library providing access to all major statistical analysis platforms. Server and network access are provided through Cancer Center administration, DHMC, and Dartmouth College. The BSR collaborates closely with other shared resources for project development and monitoring through the Office of Clinical Research, and the Integrative Biology and Experimental and Translational Models Shared Resources.
