Résumé
Medical acts, such as imaging, lead to the production of various medical text reports that describe the relevant findings. This induces multimodality in patient data by combining image data with free-text and consequently, multimodal data have become central to drive research and improve diagnoses. However, the exploitation of patient data is problematic as the ecosystem of analysis tools is fragmented according to the type of data (images, text, genetics), the task (processing, exploration) and domain of interest (clinical phenotype, histology). To address the challenges, we developed IMPatienT (Integrated digital Multimodal PATIENt daTa), a simple, flexible and open-source web application to digitize, process and explore multimodal patient data. IMPatienT has a modular architecture allowing to: (i) create a standard vocabulary for a domain, (ii) digitize and process free-text data, (iii) annotate images and perform image segmentation, (iv) generate a visualization dashboard and provide diagnosis decision support. To demonstrate the advantages of IMPatienT, we present a use case on a corpus of 40 simulated muscle biopsy reports of congenital myopathy patients. As IMPatienT provides users with the ability to design their own vocabulary, it can be adapted to any research domain and can be used as a patient registry for exploratory data analysis. A demo instance of the application is available at https://impatient.lbgi.fr/.
