Toshiba Medical Systems has established the Toshiba Center for Big Data in Healthcare at the Science + Technology Park at Johns Hopkins University.
The project is a collaboration with the Johns Hopkins radiation oncology department to study treatment pathways and outcomes in head and neck cancer and lung cancer patients, Toshiba said.
The Toshiba Center for Big Data in Healthcare will monitor individual health to help facilitate individualized patient care by analyzing a patient's condition and comparing it with the plans and outcomes of patients who have a similar anatomy, physiology, pathology, and history, the company said.
