This book chronicles the development of the National Cancer Institute's new Cancer Informatics Infrastructure (CII)-an information management system designed to facilitate clinical trials, provide for reliable, secure information exchange, and improve patient care. Presented in four sections, the first provides an overview of the processes involved in moving the infrastructure for cancer from theory into practice. Sections two through four offer the latest work done in the areas of technology, cancer-specific and national standards, and applications to facilitate clinical trials.

Review

From the reviews:

"People running cancer trials should read this book. It is about the US National Cancer Institute’s plans to ‘liberate cancer trials from paper’. ... The chapters were written by leading US experts. The content is detailed, technical, and surprisingly well-written. They give a clear vision of how cancer trials are likely to develop over the next 20 years. This book is informative, interesting, and ... enjoyable." (M Stockler, Cancer Forum, Vol. 27 (3), 2003)
