The aim of the present work is to present the new software Multimod Data Manager and to show applications in the planning and monitoring of complex skeletal reconstructions in orthopedic oncology. The DataManager allows the full integration of different kind of data, particularly medical imaging data, both static as CT, SPECT or MRI, or time-varying as fluoroscopy or dynamic MRI, with motion analysis data, but also 3D computer and finite element models of bones, joints and also soft tissues. All the data can be visualized with highly interactive and specialized modalities and can be integrated to offer a complete representation of the patient anatomy. Several algorithms are implemented to allow registration and synchronization of the data. A fully 3D environment is offered to the surgeon to navigate inside the medical imaging dataset. To exemplify the use of the software we document in this paper the data processing used to investigate different specific clinical cases in the field of orthopedic oncology.

The electronic sharing of medical imaging data is an important element of modern healthcare systems, but current infrastructure for cross-site image transfer depends on trust in third-party intermediaries. In this work, we examine the blockchain concept, which enables parties to establish consensus without relying on a central authority. We develop a framework for cross-domain image sharing that uses a blockchain as a distributed data store to establish a ledger of radiological studies and patient-defined access permissions. The blockchain framework is shown to eliminate third-party access to protected health information, satisfy many criteria of an interoperable health system, and readily generalize to domains beyond medical imaging. Relative drawbacks of the framework include the complexity of the privacy and security models and an unclear regulatory environment. Ultimately, the large-scale feasibility of such an approach remains to be demonstrated and will depend on a number of factors which we discuss in detail.
