Open Source Imaging Consortium (OSIC)

OSIC is a co-operative effort between academia, industry and philanthropy designed to enable rapid advances in the fight against Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF), fibrosing interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) and other respiratory diseases, including emphysematous conditions

The OSIC Mission

​Our mission is to bring together radiologists, clinicians and computational scientists from around the world to develop digital imaging biomarkers for accurate imaging-based diagnosis, prognosis and prediction of response to therapy.

​OSIC partners work in pre-competitive areas for mutual benefit and most importantly, the benefit of patients.
