| Sumario: | "Presented by Charles Alcorn, Head of Data Science at Roche Molecular Systems. Oncology diagnostics and treatment is a rapidly changing field of medicine with new advancements announced almost daily. The number of diagnostic tests to select treatments based on a patient's unique genetic mutations and tumor pathology characteristics has grown, as have the number of therapies available. These therapies can be matched to a patient's likelihood to respond to treatment based on the results from diagnostic tests. Estimates indicate that Oncologists would have to read the literature continuously around the clock 365 days a year to maintain their knowledge of new diagnostic tests and treatments. Further, diagnostic testing and treatment as well as associated treatment guidelines vary by patient population and country. This talk will describe medical content management concepts for the field of Oncology including data architecture, data curation, adopting to differing-and-ever-changing treatment guidelines, capture of up-to-date regulatory information, and country-specific examples. The roadmap that we are developing to support Clinical Decision Support Software in a Global Marketplace for our products and services will be described."--Resource description page.
