Abstract:
Sharing medical data may facilitate advancing research as this may allow understanding the mechanisms of certain diseases, develop new drugs and medication schemes and find cures. However, as these data originate from humans, the issue of individual privacy rises since certain data modalities, as Neuroimages, if not properly curated, may reveal the identity of the individual described by these data As legislation around the globe attempts to set rules for protecting privacy, techniques and methodologies have been proposed to allow for data publishing, also complying with the law. In this paper, we aspire to provide practitioners with workflows for ethical neuroimage data publishing under the GDPR, EU’s latest data protection regulation.
