Joel Saltz MD, PhDDirector Center for Comprehensive
Informatics
Objectives
• Reproducible anatomic/functional characterization at gross level (Radiology) and fine level (Pathology)
• Integration of anatomic/functional characterization with multiple types of “omic” information
• Create categories of jointly classified data to describe pathophysiology, predict prognosis, response to treatment
• Data modeling standards, semantics• Data research issues
In Silico Program Objectives (from NCI)• In silico is an expression used to mean "performed on computer or via
computer simulation.“ (Wikipedia)• In silico science centers: support investigator-initiated, hypothesis-
driven research in the etiology, treatment, and prevention of cancer using in silico methods– Generating and publishing novel cancer research findings leveraging
caBIG tools and infrastructure– Identifying novel bioinformatics processes and tools to exploit existing data
resources• Encouraging the development of additional data resources and caBIG
analytic services• Assessing the capabilities of current caBIG tools• Emory, Columbia, Georgetown, Fred Hutchinson Cancer ,

Integrative Analysis: Tumor Microenvironment
• Structural and functional differentiation within tumor
• Molecular pathways are time and space dependent
• “Field effects” – gradient of genetic, epigenetic changes
• Radiology, microscopy, high throughput genetic, genomic, epigenetic studies, flow cytometry, microCT, nanotechologies …
• Create biomarkers to understand disease progression, response to treatment
Tumors are organs consisting of many interdependent cell types
• From John E. Niederhuber, M.D. Director National Cancer Institute, NIH presented at Integrating and Leveraging the Physical Sciences to Open a New Frontier in Oncology, Feb 2008
Informatics Requirements

Astrocytoma vs OligodendroglimaOverlap in genetics, gene expression, histology
Astrocytoma vs Oligodendroglima• Assess nuclear size (area and
perimeter), shape (eccentricity, circularity major axis, minor axis, Fourier shape descriptor and extent ratio), intensity (average, maximum, minimum, standard error) and texture (entropy, energy, skewness and kurtosis).
Nuclear Qualities
Which features carry most prognostic significance?Which features correlate with genetic alterations?
Whole slide scans from 14 TCGA GBMS (69 slides)7 purely astrocytic in morphology; 7 with 2+ oligo component399,233 nuclei analyzed for astro/oligo featuresCases were categorized based on ratio of oligo/astro cells
Machine-based Classification of TCGA GBMs (J Kong)
TCGA Gene Expression Query: c-Met overexpression
Nuclear Feature Analysis: TCGA• Using the parallel computation infrastructure of Sun Grid
Engine, we analyzed image tiles of 4096x4096 of 213 whole-slide TCGA images of permanent tissue sections.
• Approximately 90 million nuclei segmented.
• 79 patients: 57 are diagnosed as GBM (‘oligo 0’) 17 are classified as GBM with ‘oligo 1’, 5 as GBM with ‘oligo 2+’.
• With each data file including all nuclear features from one patient, all nuclei were classified with color blue, green, and red representing nuclei scored as 1~3, 4~6, and 7~10, respectively.
• The ratio of nuclei classified ≤ 5 to >5 was computed for each 79 patients.
• Ratios associated with ‘oligo 0’ and ‘oligo 2+’ patient populations were compared with two-sample t-test (p=0.0145)

3 Gene Families are Altered in GBM: RTK, p53 and RB
GBM: necrosis, hypoxia, angiogenesis and gene expression
• Does the presence or degree of necrosis within digitized frozen section slides correlate with specific gene expression patterns or determine algorithm-based unsupervised clustering of GBMs gene expression categories?
• Does the presence or degree of necrosis influence the type of angiogenesis or pro-angiogenic gene expression patterns within human gliomas?
GBM: % Necrosis
TCGA: GBM Frozen Sections
• 179 cases were assessed for % necrosis on frozen section slides for TCGA quality assurance.
• Cox-based regression analysis for % necrosis vs. gene expression (795 probe sets; 647 distinct genes)

Vessel Characterization• Bifurcation detection
Vasari Imaging Criteria(Adam Flanders, TJU; Dan Rubin, Stanford, Lori
Dodd, NCI)• Require standardized validated feature sets to
describe de novo disease.• Fundamental obstacle to new imaging criteria as
treatment biomarkers is lack of standard terminology:– To define a comprehensive set of imaging
features of cancer– For reporting imaging results– To provide a more quantitative, reproducible
basis for assessing baseline disease and treatment response
Defining Rich Set of Qualitative and Quantitative Image Biomarkers
• Community-driven ontology development project; collaboration with ASNR
• Imaging features (5 categories)– Location of lesion– Morphology of lesion margin (definition, thickness,
enhancement, diffusion)– Morphology of lesion substance (enhancement, PS
characteristics, focality/multicentricity, necrosis, cysts, midline invasion, cortical involvement, T1/FLAIR ratio)
– Alterations in vicinity of lesion (edema, edema crossing midline, hemorrhage, pial invasion, ependymal invasion, satellites, deep WM invasion, calvarial remodeling)
– Resection features (extent of nCE tissue, CE tissue, resected components)
Results: Reader Agreement• High inter-observer agreement among
the three readers– (kappa = 0.68, p<0.001)
• Percentage agreement was also high for most features individually– 22 of 30 features (73%) had agreement greater than
50%– Twelve features (40%) had >80% agreement– No feature had less than 20% agreement
• Feature agreement rose substantially when used with tolerance (+/- 1).
Preliminary Relationships of Features to Survival
• Cox proportional hazards models were fit to each of the thirty features related to overall survival.
• Features associated with lower survival included (p<.0001):– Proportion of enhancing tissue at baseline.– Thick or nodular enhancement characteristics.– Contralateral hemisphere invasion.
• Proportion of non contrast enhancing tumor (nCET) had positive correlation with survival.
• Tumor size at baseline had no relationship to survival.

Annotations and Imaging Markup (AIM)
Annotations and Imaging Markup Developer (AIM) provides a standard for medical image annotation and markup for images used in the research space, and in particular, the image based cancer clinical trial. It is notable that there is no existing standard for radiology annotation and markup. The caBIG® program is working with almost
every standards body such as DICOM to elicit consensus regarding use of AIM as the accepted standard for radiology annotation and markup, and is positioned to extend AIM to digital pathology.
The pixel at the tip of the arrow [coordinates (x,y)] in this image[DICOM: 1.2.814.234543.23243]represents the Ascending Thoracic Aorta[SNOMED:A3310657]
Aim Data Service Emory (AIME) is a caGrid data service that manages AIM documents in XML databases. AIME supports query, enumerationQuery, queryByTransfer, submit and submitByTransfer methods
MicroAIM
• Provide a semantically enabled data model for pathology and microscopy image markups and observations
• Goal: interoperable data exchange and knowledge sharing
• Ongoing collaborative efforts to standardize via caBIG and Association for Pathology Informatics
• microAIM data service provides comprehensive query support, and can be efficiently implemented either through an XML-based or a relational based approach.
Pathology AIM; Semantic Annotation and Spatial Reasoning
Observation on a single or multiple objects
Support multiple objects and associate different observations to each object
Calculation on a single or multiple objects
Class of type to represent mask or field value
Represent provenance information for computed markup and annotation
Identify all instances of a set of cell types
Complex spatial queries: Quantify areas of glomeruloid microvascular proliferation within X microns of pseudopalisading necrosis

Data Science Research Challenges Driven by In Silico Discovery Research
• Data integration that targets multiple data sources with conflicting metadata and conflicting data
• Efficient methods for semantic query that targets questions involving complex multi-scale features associated with petascale and exascale ensembles of highly annotated images
• Computer assisted annotation and markup for very large datasets
• Systems to support combinations of structured and irregular accesses to exascale datasets
Data Science Research Challenges
• Structural and semantic metadata management: how to manage tradeoff between flexibility and curation
• Data and semantic modeling infrastructures and policies able to scale to handle distributed systems with an aggregate of 10*9 or more data models/concepts
• Three dimensional (time dependent) reconstruction, feature detection and annotation of 3-D microscopy imagery
• Workflow infrastructure for large scale data intensive computations
Final Data Science Challenge: Large Dataset Size
– Basic small mouse is 10 cm3
– 1 μ resolution – very roughly 1013 bytes/mouse
– Molecular data (spatial location) multiply by 102
– Vary genetic composition, environmental manipulation, systematic mechanisms for varying genetic expression; multiply by 103
Total: 1018 bytes per big science animal experiment
