Step 3: What if my needs are not satisfied by the self-service options?
If you have created a de-identified cohort using the STARR-OMOP-deid database and would like to identify patients or obtain additional data from their records, you will need to go through the compliance steps, obtain IRB approval, and complete a Data Privacy Attestation (DPA).
After this is done, request help from the Research Informatics Center. RIC is the designated team to provide clinical data for research use at Stanford. The team can also extract data that are in the EHR but not available through either the STARR-STRIDE tools or via the STARR-OMOP database. Note that such custom requests will typically require you to have funding for the work you ask RIC team members to do for you.
If you need to download images (X-ray, MRI, CT scans), please request a consultation with RIC after going through the compliance steps. Currently, image data are not available via self-service tools.
If you are interested in data from sources not yet listed, such as the Stanford Cancer Registry (SCIRDB), the Bone Marrow Transplant / CAR-T Database, the Solid Tumor and Lymphoma Databases, other specialized oncology clinical datasets (e.g., OnCore, Pathology, Mutations, Imaging, Radiation Therapy), or ancillary systems such as ARIA (Radiation Oncology), PowerPath (Pathology), TraceMasterVue (EKG) , XCelera (Cardiac imaging), or Bedside Monitoring Data (LPCH only), please request a consultation with the RIC after going through the necessary compliance steps.
