For this purpose, serial MRI studies were acquired over the course of treatment. The study schema for the ACRIN 6698 Trial is shown in Figure 1\r\n\r\nMRI studies were performed at up to four time points in the course of NAC:\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li>Pre-treatment (T0, optional test\/retest visit)\r\nPrior to randomization patients received an MRI study including T2<sub>weighted<\/sub>, 4 b\u2011value DWI, and dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) acquisitions.<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\nFor patients randomized onto a treatment arm of I\u2011SPY\u00a02 subsequent MRI studies with the same required acquisitions were performed:\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li>Early-treatment (T1, optional test\/retest visit)\r\nAfter 3 weeks of regimen 1 treatment (Paclitaxel with or without an experimental agent).<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Mid-treatment (T2)\r\nBetween Paclitaxel and Anthracycline (AC) treatment regimens<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Post-treatment (T3)\r\nFollowing 4 cycles AC and prior to surgery.<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n\u201cCoffee-break\u201d style test\/retest studies were done on a subset of patients under a separate informed consent. These were by preference done at the baseline visit but were also allowed at visit T1. A given patient could only have the test\/retest scans at a single visit, and the total number of test\/retest cases at any given site was limited (maximum 14) to ensure a wide representation of different scanners, sites and field strengths in the test\/retest cohort.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/image2021-5-11_15-43-30.png\" rel=\"prettyPhoto noopener\"><img class=\"cm-inline-img-css wp-image-34 size-medium alignleft\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/image2021-5-11_15-43-30.png\" \/><\/a>\r\n\r\nFigure 1. ACRIN 6698 study schema.\r\n<h4>Imaging protocol and included original image series<\/h4>\r\nMR imaging was performed on a 1.5 or 3.0 Tesla scanner using a dedicated breast radiofrequency coil. All studies for a given patient were required to be performed on the same scanner configuration (model, field strength and breast coil model). Subjects were imaged in the prone position. The image acquisition protocol included a localization scan and a minimum of three required acquisitions:\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li>T2<sub>weighted<\/sub> sequence<\/li>\r\n \t<li>DWI (b=0, 100, 600, 800 s\/mm<sup>2<\/sup>, 3-direction)<\/li>\r\n \t<li>T1<sub>weighted<\/sub> DCE (80sec &lt; phase duration &lt; 100sec with at least 8 minutes continuous post-injection acquisition)<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\nProtocol limits on scan parameters for these required acquisitions are given in an accompanying document\u00a0<a href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/ACRIN-6698-MRI-Acquisition-Parameters_20210520.pdf\" download=\"ACRIN-6698-MRI-Acquisition-Parameters_20210520.pdf\">ACRIN 6698 MRI Acquisition Parameters<\/a>.\r\n\r\nAll required imaging was performed axially with full bilaterally coverage. For the TCIA collection all original images from these three acquisitions are included. Derived images submitted with the study including reformats, CAD software outputs and MIP images are not part of the collection. For the T2<sub>weighted<\/sub> acquisitions multiple series are included if they were generated as part of the standard reconstruction process on the scanner. For example, acquisitions utilizing Dixon techniques to create separate fat and water images will have multiple series in the collection. All images in the original DWI series are included, including directional diffusion images for cases where they were retained and submitted with the study. For some General Electric Medical Systems (GEMS) scanners employed in the trial the acquisition software allowed only 2 b-values in a single DWI acquisition. For studies on these scanners the four b-value protocol DWI consisted of three consecutive two b-value series ([0,800], [0,600] and [0,100] s\/mm<sup>2<\/sup>). A separate \u201cmerged series multi-b\u201d (MSMB) series containing all b&gt;0 images from the three series plus a single b=0 s\/mm<sup>2<\/sup> image created by averaging the three acquired b=0 images was created for analysis and is also included in the collection. The MSMB series are identified by Series Number (0020,0011) ending in 28 and by the string \"MSMB\" as part of the Series Description (0008,103e). The DICOM metadata fields in the MSMB series have been set to permit reading as a standard GEMS multi-b acquisition. During automated QC procedures, the MSMB acquisitions were rejected if any sequence related parameters other than the b value differed between the multiple two b-value acquisitions. The original 2-b acquisition series are also included in the collection.\r\n\r\nFor test\/retest MRI studies the patient was initially positioned in the scanner and had scout, T2<sub>weighted<\/sub> and DWI acquisitions performed. The patient was then removed from the scanner bed and repositioned. The scout,\u00a0T2<sub>weighted<\/sub> and DWI were repeated and then the DCE scans were conducted. All of these acquisitions were stored in a single MRI study for this collection.\r\n<h4>Derived object series:<\/h4>\r\nDerived objects from the DWI and DCE acquisitions are included for the convenience of the user. Some of these are not strictly DICOM compliant and may not be readable by all DICOM software packages. Parametric maps and segmentations are believed to be identical to those utilized in the primary analysis and test\/retest repeatability analyses of the 6698 Trial, but in some cases modifications may have occurred in subsequent processing.\r\n<h5>DWI \u201cPackage\u201d for each study with analyzable diffusion scan<\/h5>\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li>4 b-value DW Trace Images\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li>Multiple 2-b MSMB DWI acquisitions were combined (1 site)<\/li>\r\n \t<li>3 directional DW images were geometrically averaged to generate trace images for studies where directional DWI data was saved<\/li>\r\n \t<li>DICOM enhanced MRI b-value field ( 0018,9087 ) has been populated in all images with the appropriate b-value<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Image order was standardized<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<\/li>\r\n \t<li>4-b value ADC maps\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li>A low threshold (b=0 image &gt; 10) was applied to all studies to suppress background pixels<\/li>\r\n \t<li>ADC was calculated as linear fit to log(S(b)) = log(S(0)) \u2013 ADC * b<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Voxels below threshold or with ADC &lt; 0.0 were set to 0<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Manually defined multi-slice tumor segmentations\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li>ROIs defined for published primary analysis<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Tumor segmented on all slices with identifiable tumor referencing high-b image, ADC map, and DCE subtraction image (for localization)<\/li>\r\n \t<li>The segmentations are provided both as DICOM SEG objects and as DICOM MRI objects on TCIA<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\nThese DWI derived series can be identified either by Series Description (0008,103e) or by Series Number (0020,0011).

Tumor was identified on post-contrast DCE subtraction images and then localized on the ADC map. Multi-slice, whole-tumor regions of interest (ROIs) were manually defined by selecting regions with low ADC and hyperintensity on a high b-value DWI (b=600 or 800 s\/mm<sup>2<\/sup>) while avoiding adjacent adipose and fibroglandular tissue, biopsy clip artifacts, and regions of high T2 signal (e.g., seroma and necrosis). For multicentric\/multifocal disease, all disease regions were included in the ROI. For studies at later treatment timepoints where no tumor could be identified, an ROI was defined in normal appearing fibroglandular tissue in the vicinity of the primary tumor region identified on the patient\u2019s baseline (T0) visit. Region definition was done at the UCSF processing lab using in-house software tools\u00a0developed with IDL (Exelis Visual Information Solutions, Boulder, Colorado).\r\n<h5>DCE \u201cPackage\u201d for each study<\/h5>\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li>Single-breast ipsilateral cropped DCE images\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li>As this was done primarily for computational efficiency, low matrix-sized images (&lt;384 voxels per row) were stored and processed without cropping<\/li>\r\n \t<li>All maps and segmentations are based on these cropped images<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Enhancement maps\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li>PE<sub>early<\/sub>: Percent enhancement at effective post-contrast time 120-150 sec<\/li>\r\n \t<li>PE<sub>late \u00a0<\/sub>: Percent enhancement at effective post-contrast time ~450 sec<\/li>\r\n \t<li>SER: Signal enhancement ratio\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 SER =\u00a0 PE<sub>early<\/sub> \/ PE<sub>late<\/sub>\r\nNote: SER values were scaled by 1000 to allow integer storage.

Note: the DCE functional tumor volume (FTV) results stored in the SER derived objects are NOT identical to those used in the I\u2011SPY\u00a02 study due to differences in implementations on different platforms (UCSF in-house software vs. Hologic Inc. AEGIS system). While the differences are generally small and the AEGIS system was validated against the UCSF results in the prior I\u2011SPY\u00a01 TRIAL, identical results cannot be guaranteed.\r\n<h4>Image Quality Control System<\/h4>\r\nACRIN 6698 analysis included use of an image quality control system developed specifically for determination of the analyzability of breast DWI for quantitative cancer treatment monitoring. The image quality control system was comprised of three sequential but independent assessment stages: protocol compliance, image quality and usability, and ROI confidence. Since protocol compliance, image quality, and ROI confidence varied between exams for the same patient, each step was performed independently for each MRI exam.\r\n<h5>Protocol Compliance Assessment<\/h5>\r\nFirst, image metadata in DICOM tags was assessed for compliance with specified imaging parameters. Deviations from the specified imaging protocol were documented and classified into minor (non-critical to study aims) and major (critical to the study aims). Images exhibiting major protocol deviations were flagged and omitted from further analysis.\r\n<h5>Image Quality and Usability Assessment<\/h5>\r\nNext, the overall image quality and the usability of images for the study endpoints were evaluated. Readers scored image quality using a standard letter grading scale of A (best), B (good), C (average), D (poor) and F (worst) on fat suppression, severity of artifacts (displacement, ghosts, and distortions) and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). These metrics were selected to reflect the most common and debilitating limitations in breast DWI. Fat suppression and SNR were scored using only the b=0 images while the severity of artifacts was evaluated using all DWI images. Scores were assigned numeric values (A=4 to F=0) and the geometric mean of the scores for fat suppression, artifacts and SNR was computed to yield a composite quality score. Each composite quality score was classified into overall high-, moderate-, or low-quality categories.\r\n\r\nSeparate from this image quality assessment, a subjective pass\/fail assessment was made of image usability for evaluating diffusion parameters such as lesion ADC. This criterion was established to ensure that images of sufficient quality to address the scientific aim of the study were not rejected, e.g., a poor quality score due to excessive imaging artefacts might not result in rejection if the artefacts did not encroach on the region of the enhancing tumor.\r\n<h5>ROI Confidence Assessment<\/h5>\r\nAfter the full multi-slice\/multi-region ROIs were placed, they were scored qualitatively based on reader confidence that the ROI faithfully represented the tissue of interest. The goal was to characterize the whole tumor while excluding fat, tissue, and tumor necrosis. ROIs were scored on a numerical scale of 3 for high confidence, 2 for moderate confidence and 1 for low confidence. Inclusion in the primary analysis was determined based on the image quality and ROI confidence assessments.\r\n<h3>Patient cohorts in the shared collection<\/h3>\r\nFigure 2 shows the enrollment numbers and exclusions used to determine the analysis cohort for the primary analysis. For this TCIA collection we include MRI studies from 385 of the 388 eligible subjects, three being excluded due to having no analyzable MRI studies received by the central imaging lab. The 116 patients excluded from the primary analysis as \u201cNot Randomized\u201d were those screened out of I\u2011SPY\u00a02, most commonly due to being in the low-risk category (HR+\/HER2- subtype with low MammaPrint score). Note that all these patients have baseline MRI studies included in this collection, and some were included in the ACRIN 6698 test\/retest repeatability arm. A separate TCIA download option is provided for researchers who wish to focus on the 242-patient cohort used in the primary analysis. These subjects all had MRI studies with DWI scans that passed the QC evaluations at baseline and at at least one later time point. One other download option is provided for the 71-patient cohort with analyzable test\/retest, primarily for use in the BMMR2 challenge and for researchers wishing to check reproducibility while focusing on the smaller 242 patient analysis cohort. The primary aim and test\/retest studies are the only ones guaranteed to have tumor segmentations and DWI derived objects in this collection.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/image2021-5-11_15-53-17.png\" rel=\"prettyPhoto noopener\"><img class=\"cm-inline-img-css alignright wp-image-33 size-medium\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/image2021-5-11_15-53-17.png\" \/><\/a>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nFigure 2. Derivation of the primary analysis cohort for ACRIN 6698. To be included in the primary analysis patients were required to have analyzable DW-MRI acquisitions at baseline (T0, pre-treatment) and for at least 1 subsequent study time point.\r\n\r\nA subset of the ACRIN 6698 collection was used for the NCI QIN sponsored BMMR2 challenge (<em>Breast Multiparametric MRI for prediction of NAC Response<\/em>) running from June 1, 2021 through December 21, 2021. The goal of the challenge was\u00a0to identify image-based markers derived from DW-MRI, alone or in combination with DCE-MRI, with improved performance over whole-tumor mean ADC for predicting pCR following NAC for invasive breast cancer. To achieve this goal,\u00a0a subset of the ACRIN 6698 MRI studies from\u00a0<strong>191<\/strong>\u00a0subjects with analyzable data at all of the 1<sup>st<\/sup>\u00a0three timepoints (T0, T1 and T2) was made available to registered research teams for the sole purpose of participating in the challenge.

Patients underwent breast DWI using a 4-b value protocol, as well as standard T2-weighted and dynamic contrast enhanced (DCE)\u00a0scans. MRI studies were conducted at 4 timepoints over the course of NAC: pre-treatment (T0), early-treatment after 3 cycles paclitaxel (T1), mid-treatment between paclitaxel and AC (T2) and post-treatment (T3). Of the 272 treated patients, 242 comprised the primary analysis cohort (30 were excluded for missing or non-evaluable DWI exams). This TCIA collection includes all MRI studies received by the UCSF image analysis lab, excluding studies with no analyzable acquisitions. A separate download option is provided to access only those studies in the primary analysis cohort.\u00a0In addition, DWI test\/retest data acquired at baseline or early-treatment in a subset of patients is included in the full collection and is available as a separate download option (N=89 subjects consented and imaged, 71 analyzable test\/retest acquisition pairs).<\/p><p><a href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/image2021-5-11_15-43-30.png\" rel=\"prettyPhoto noopener\"><img class=\"cm-inline-img-css alignright wp-image-34 size-medium\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/image2021-5-11_15-43-30.png\" \/><\/a><\/p><p>The ACRIN 6698 image data set is currently a unique collection for investigating the utility of DWI for monitoring of response to neoadjuvant breast cancer treatment. While many smaller and\/or single-site DWI studies have been published, the multi-center and quality-control aspects of this data allow investigators true evaluation of analysis techniques in the clinical trial environment. The multi-b value protocol also allows evaluation of higher order diffusion models and evaluation at two different clinically relevant b values (600 and 800 s\/mm<sup>2<\/sup>). Furthermore, the embedded test-retest arm of the study will allow evaluation of repeatability and reproducibility of new DWI metrics and analysis techniques.<\/p><p>In addition to the original DWI data the collection includes derived ADC maps with manually delimited tumor segmentations from the primary study analysis (for all studies rated as analyzable in the QC evaluation), plus T2-weighted images, DCE images with derived enhancement maps, clinical data and outcome data (pathologic complete response [pCR] at surgery).
