Mapping of ICD-O Tuples to OncoTree Codes Using SNOMED CT Post-Coordination.

Around 500,000 oncological diseases are diagnosed in Germany every year which are documented using the International Classification of Diseases for Oncology (ICD-O). Apart from this, another classification for oncology, OncoTree, is often used for the integration of new research findings in oncology. For this purpose, a semi-automatic mapping of ICD-O tuples to OncoTree codes was developed.

APERITIF - Automatic Patient Recruiting for Clinical Trials Based on HL7 FHIR.

Clinical trials are carried out to prove the safety and effectiveness of new interventions and therapies. As diseases and their causes continue to become more specific, so do inclusion and exclusion criteria for trials. Patient recruitment has always been a challenge, but with medical progress, it becomes increasingly difficult to achieve the necessary number of cases.
