Guidance for Use of Common Data Elements (CDEs)

To ensure data collected at RADx-rad are compliant with the FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable) principles, NIH recommends using Common Data Elements (CDEs) for data collection and data standardization. The consistent use of CDEs within the RADx program will greatly increase the interoperability and reusability of collected data, thus enabling efficient data integration and data analysis across different studies.
