Boston, MA—Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre and North York General Hospital in Toronto have selected mTuitive’s xPert for Pathology synoptic reporting solution to meet Cancer Care Ontario’s 2008-2009 CAP/CS aligned data standards for pathology reporting.
Standardized pathology reporting increases the availability and consistency of cancer pathology information that is essential for treatment decisions, evaluation, and research.
