This diagram shows iterative improvement to each step of the process from taking images to making them accessible for research:

- cataloguing them for findability and cohort building
- creating research-relevant subsets of data (aka cohorts)
- providing a research space that is scalable and fit for purpose
- applying cybersecurity and disclosure controls to respect and protect patient data
