The present disclosure is directed at a system and method for analyzing clinical trial data over a network. The system and method specifics image protocols, encodes a number of protocols and communicates that information to an acquisition unit that appends the protocols to a digital image. When the image needs to be analyzed to gather clinical trial data, the encoded information is extracted and the correct software application is initialized and used to analyze the image.

1. A system having at least one processor, storage, and a communication platform connected to a network for analyzing an image, the system comprising: a trial specification unit, implemented on the at least one processor, configured to obtain one or more imaging protocols, each of which specifying how an image is to be acquired;an encoding unit, implemented on the at least one processor, configured to encode information related to clinical trial protocols including the one or more imaging protocols;the communication platform configured to transmit the encoded information related to clinical trial protocols, via the network, to an acquisition unit, so that the acquisition unit can acquire an image based, at least in part, on the one or more imaging protocols and append the encoded information related to clinical trial protocols to the acquired image, andreceive the acquired image appended with the encoded information related to clinical trial protocols from the acquisition unit;an application dispatch unit, implemented on the at least one processor, configured to decode the appended information related to clinical trial protocols, identify a clinical trial protocol from the decoded information related to clinical trial protocols, andinitialize a software application based on the identified clinical trial protocol;an analysis unit, implemented on the at least one processor, configured to perform an analysis of the received image utilizing the software application to obtain an analysis result; andan application result compensation generation unit, implemented on the at least one processor, configured to apply compensation data to the analysis result, wherein the compensation data is obtained from statistical analysis of prior use of the software application. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein the analysis result is used to generate clinical trial data. 3. The system of claim 1, wherein the compensation data is used by the software application to refine the analysis result. 4. The system of claim 1, wherein the information related to clinical trial protocols includes at least one of the following: a protocol description,an image type,an application type,an application parameter, andan analysis protocol. 5. The system of claim 4, wherein the encoded information is appended to a header of the image. 6. The system of claim 5, further comprising: an application repository configured to store a plurality of software applications for image processing; anda database for storing the received image, whereinthe application dispatch unit is further configured to retrieve the image from the database, andselect the software application from the plurality of software applications in the application repository to process the image. 7. The system of claim 6, wherein the selected software application generates results based on the analysis of the image and outputs the results to the analysis unit. 8. The system of claim 1, wherein the compensation data is used to revise the clinical trial protocols. 9. The system of claim 1, wherein the image includes a Digital Imaging and Communication in Medicine (DICOM) image. 10. A method implemented on a machine having at least one processor, storage, and a communication platform connected to a network for analyzing clinical trial data, the method comprising: obtaining one or more imaging protocols, each of which specifying how an image is to be acquired;encoding information related to clinical trial protocols including the one or more imaging protocols;transmitting the encoded information related to clinical trial protocols, via the network, to an acquisition unit, so that the acquisition unit acquires an image based, at least in part, on the one or more imaging protocols and appends the encoded information related to clinical trial protocols to the acquired image;receiving the image appended with the encoded information related to clinical trial protocols from the acquisition unit;decoding the appended information related to clinical trial protocols, via a dispatch unit;identifying a clinical trial protocol from the decoded information related to clinical trial protocols;initializing a software application based on the identified clinical trial protocol;performing an analysis of the received image utilizing the software application to obtain an analysis result; andapplying compensation data to the analysis result, wherein the compensation data is obtained from statistical analysis of prior use of the software application. 11. The method of claim 10, wherein the compensation data is used by the software application to refine the analysis result. 12. The method of claim 10, wherein the compensation data is used to revise the clinical trial protocols. 13. The method of claim 10, wherein the analysis result is used to generate clinical trial data. 14. The method of claim 10, wherein the information related to clinical trial protocols includes at least one of the following: a protocol description,an image type,an application type,an application parameter, andan analysis protocol. 15. The method of claim 10, wherein the image includes a Digital Imaging and Communication in Medicine (DICOM) image. 16. A machine-readable tangible and non-transitory medium, having information recorded thereon for analyzing clinical trial data, wherein the information, when read by the machine, causes the machine to perform the following: obtaining one or more imaging protocols, each of which specifying how an image is to be acquired;encoding information related to clinical trial protocols including the one or more imaging protocols;transmitting the encoded information related to clinical trial protocols, via the network, to an acquisition unit, so that the acquisition unit acquires an image based, at least in part, on the one or more imaging protocols and appends the encoded information related to clinical trial protocols to the acquired image;receiving the image appended with the encoded information related to clinical trial protocols from the acquisition unit;decoding the appended information related to clinical trial protocols, via a dispatch unit;identifying a clinical trial protocol from the decoded information related to clinical trial protocols;initializing a software application based on the identified clinical trial protocol;performing an analysis of the received image utilizing the software application to obtain an analysis result; andapplying compensation data to the analysis result, wherein the compensation data is obtained from statistical analysis of prior use of the software application. 17. The medium of claim 16, wherein the compensation data is used by the software application to refine the analysis result. 18. The medium of claim 16, wherein the compensation data is used to revise the clinical trial protocols. 19. The medium of claim 16, wherein the analysis result is used to generate clinical trial data. 20. The medium of claim 16, wherein the information related to clinical trial protocols includes at least one of the following: a protocol description,an image type,an application type,an application parameter, and an analysis protocol. 21. The medium of claim 16, wherein the image includes a Digital Imaging and Communication in Medicine (DICOM) image.
