Oncogrid: uma grade computacional para a integração e compartilhamento de dados médicos em oncologia. / Oncogrid: a grid computing to the integration and sharing medical data in oncology.

Higor Aparecido Vieira Alves

In Brazil the cancer information is distributed among several institutions that accomplish your treatment, in this context we are need tools to build a national scenery that can be aid the cancer care. This context motivated the Oncogrid creation that is a grid computing for integration and sharing medical data in oncology and will allow the medical community to analise the applied treatments with reflection in cancer management.A study was done to analise the several architectures and components used in grid projects to health care, making possible to propose a flexible, modular and scalable architecture to the Oncogrid accordingly with the brazilian reality. An initial project between LSI/EPUSP and NUTES/UFPE that was developed an application to plot the survival curve using the Kaplan-Meier method and allow the evaluation of the Oncogrid architecture. The results achieved confirm the architecture viability used and the proposal potentiality of a grid computing with a new paradigm to the integration and sharing informations. The Oncogrid shows a viable computing architecture to Brazil, especially to access distributed information that can be prove great contributions to treatment evolution and to develop new research areas.
