DESIREE Project @ HIMSS Europe 18 & Health 2.0 Conference

On Tuesday 29 May 2018, at 'Solutions for Hospitals and Health Professionals' session, 10:30 A.M., PhD. Ing. Nekane Larburu, from Vicomtech had a 4-minute pitch of DESIREE! The presentation was a demo of the Decision Support System for the coordination and multidisciplinary management of cases in Breast Units, the main component of DESIREE. Usually, BUs spend 3-10 minutes per patient to make a treatment decision. For that, BUs use their implicit knowledge, which could follow or not the clinical guidelines. DESIREE besides giving them a visual intuitive tool for BUs, provides clinical guidelines´ recommendations, shows which treatment has been given to similar patients, and also is able to generate new knowledge based on previous cases.
