Radiology Clinical Core Facility (RADCORE)

The Clinical Imaging Core Service Center was developed in 2010 jointly between the Department of Radiology and the Abramson Cancer Center to support cancer clinical trials. Since then it has evolved to provided services throughout the Perelman School of Medicine.  The core is divided into three categories: RADCORE, Tumor Response Assessment (TRAC) and Research imaging guided biopsies. 

• RADCORE is staffed by dedicated clinical research professionals with a wide range of expertise of imaging based clinical research protocols.  The services we provide range from consultation through fully management of research protocols. This team also includes our dedicated Radiology IND/IDE support office. 
• Tumor Response Assessment Core (TRAC) is staffed by a core team of Radiologist skilled in evaluating tumor response imaging assessments for patients enrolled in cancer clinical trials being conducted at UPHS.
