- Title
Synoptic Reporting on Breast Cancer Biomarkers: A Novel Quality Improvement Module.
- Authors
Nofech-Mozes, Sharon; Jorden, Tanya; Hanna, Wedad M.; Khalifa, Mahmoud A.
- Abstract
Currently, testing for biomarkers such as estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, and HER2/neu is undertaken in all newly diagnosed cases of invasive breast cancer. Reports of biomarker test results in synoptic format may be linked to the initial surgical pathology report through the creation of discrete data fields. This approach facilitates data entry and promotes the efficient retrieval of data for analysis.
