Opis

This book gives readers an in-depth look into how big data is having an impact on the clinical care of cancer patients. While basic principles and key analytical and processing techniques are introduced in the early chapters, the rest of the book turns to clinical applications, in particular for cancer registries, informatics, radiomics, radiogenomics, patient safety and quality of care, patientreported outcomes, comparative effectiveness, treatment planning, and clinical decision-making. A final section envisions a futuristic health system and emerging models for cancer prevention and detection.
