The Sydney Adventist Hospital (the San) is currently automating its cancer services multi-disciplinary team meetings (MDTs) using a new integrated cancer information management system (ICIMS) from the Sydney firm Innovative Clinical Information Management Systems (iCIMS).

The new system is built on iCIMS’ LATTICE platform and is aimed at streamlining and automating data preparation, data collection and workflows for each of the San's 10 tumour stream MDTs. MDT meetings bring together a team of healthcare professionals to determine a patient's treatment plan and are widely used in cancer care.

This project is part of the San's plans for a cancer centre of excellence, including its state-of-the-art multi-disciplinary meeting room (pictured above), to become the leading cancer service in Australia.
