Integrated Oncology Workstation.

摘要

The conceptual overview of the integrated oncology workstation, provided in this monograph, was written to describe what the features of this clinical care system for practicing oncologists might include. The clinical workstation for oncology will be organized around a database that contains the current information for each patient being followed by the physician (the 'electronic medical record'). It will also provide facile access to a knowledge base of information resources such as PDQ, CANCERLIT and MEDLINE. This concept - the integration of data and knowledge - is the foundation on which the clinical workstation for oncology will be built.
