Development and application of a simple radiotherapy information system with multi-technology integration / 中华放射肿瘤学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To develop a simple radiotherapy information system for the developments of multiple hospital areas.@*Methods@#Using C/S+ B/S dual technology architecture, Visual Studio 2015+ C#+ HTML5+ JavaScript+ PostgreSQL9.5 were utilized as the programming tools selected for development. The two-dimensional barcode, intelligent IC card, identity card recognition, face recognition, speech synthesis and other technologies were integrated and applied in the radiotherapy process management. The normal business processes were designed by default automatic processing. Previous multi-step operation was simplified to single-key operation.@*Results@#System development was completed and implemented at the end of 2017, which connected the south and north hospital areas. The system not only resolved the problem that required the doctors to manually input or make telephone call for consulting patients’ data, but also achieved paperless business process in different departments. The outstanding advantage was reflected in the aspects of intelligence and optimization. Approximately 95% of the normal flows could be completed by single-key automatic processing, and the remaining 5% requiring special operations (such as, modification or deletion, etc.) were prompted and restricted to ensure data security and system stability.@*Conclusion@#The application of this system improves the level of information management in the departments and saves the cost of supplies and human resources.
