A novel method for continuous measurements of clinical practice guideline adherence.

Introduction: Clinical practice guidelines (hereafter 'guidelines') are crucial in providing evidence-based recommendations for physicians and multidisciplinary teams to make informed decisions regarding diagnostics and treatment in various diseases, including cancer.
