GODS (Graphical Oncology Diagnostic System) is an application which will enable a physician
to enter information about a patient during a diagnostic examination, by using simple drag
and drop technique on a sketch, photo, or x-ray image.
Our application will allow physicians to draw markings on an image as they examine a
patient during a check up. These information will then be stored in a database for future reference.
A summary document of this information can be obtained automatically from the image
annotation. This sketch will be extremely useful to the diagnosis procedure of a returning
patient. More importantly, included features of our application can be personalized to suit
any physician's needs.
Currently, this application is developed for Dr. Kevin Hughes of The Avon
Foundation Comprehensive Breast Evaluation Center at the Massachusetts General Hospital
for his diagnosis of breast cancer patients. In the future, this application will be
adaptable in the diagnosis of any part of the human body.
