Prostate cancer (PCa) is one of the most prevalent cancers in the male population. Current clinical practices lead to overdiagnosis and overtreatment necessitating more effective tools for improving diagnosis, thus the quality of life of patients. Recent advances in infrastructure, computing power and artificial intelligence enable the collection of tremendous amounts of clinical and imaging data that could assist towards this end. ProCAncer-I project aims to develop an AI platform integrating imaging data and models and hosting the largest collection of PCa (mp)MRI, anonymized image data worldwide. In this paper, we present an overview of the overall architecture focusing on the data ingestion part of the platform. We describe the workflow followed for uploading the data and the main repositories for storing imaging data, clinical data and their corresponding metadata.
