Implementing Cancer Registry Data With the PCORnet Common Data Model: The Greater Plains Collaborative Experience Open
PURPOSE Electronic health records (EHRs) comprise a rich source of real-world data for cancer studies, but they often lack critical structured data elements such as diagnosis date and disease stage. Fortunately, such concepts are available…
