Introduction

Even in the digital age, simple and secure data exchange in the field of medicine and health is not yet a matter of course and harbors risks. This also applies to the exchange of follow-up care information for cancer patients: Data is sometimes transferred to the necessary doctors and hospitals incorrectly, too late or not at all. The consequences can be serious.

The goal

The OncoBroker project has developed a solution supported by artificial intelligence that enables anonymized data to reach the right recipient at the right time and on a daily basis via a secure platform. Information is exchanged reliably between doctors and hospitals, the processes involved in transferring information are simplified and the time required is minimized.

What are the benefits of OncoBroker for the population?

Fast and reliable transmission of treatment data is extremely important for the treatment of patients. If the information is incomplete or not available, this could have negative consequences for patients.

How does OncoBroker improve everyday life?

Until now, data was exchanged manually, usually by fax. This involved a lot of time and administration. Digitization makes the processes faster.

What new possibilities are there?

Oncobroker is initially limited to uterine, breast and colon cancer and patients of the St. Joseph-Stift hospital Dresden. Other hospitals and patients with other clinical pictures could benefit from this in the future.

What does this mean for supply?

The data protection-compliant transfer of patient follow-up data is faster and more reliable.

Versatile applications

OncoBroker creates great added value for the population:
