NHLBI has issued a sources sought seeking Medical Imaging Software Development in connection with its MRI Technology Program which is “the driving force behind the ISMRM RawData (ISMRMRD) format which is the community standard for representation and storage of MRI raw data and is also actively developing and distributing an open source image reconstruction framework known as the Gadgetron. This framework includes a streaming pipeline architecture for efficient data processing and a set of toolboxes that provide image reconstruction components such as filters, transformations, and optimizers. In addition to these major software projects, the MR Technology Program also maintains various tools for integration with proprietary medical imaging instruments. As these tools grow in scope and popularity, there is a need for continuous restructuring and enhancement of the software packages.”
