Title: | Standardized observational cancer research using the OMOP CDM oncology module |
Conference Title: | 17th World Congress on Medical and Health Informatics |
Abstract: | Observational research in cancer requires substantially more detail than most other therapeutic areas. Cancer conditions are defined through histology, affected anatomical structures, staging and grading, and biomarkers, and are treated with complex therapies. Here, we show a new cancer module as part of the OMOP CDM, allowing manual and automated abstraction and standardized analytics. We tested the model in EHR and registry data against a number of typical use cases. © 2019 International Medical Informatics Association (IMIA) and IOS Press.
