Tampa, Florida (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Cancer informatics and digital pathology provider Inspirata announced today a multi-year extension of its close partnership with one of the world’s leading cancer registries, the Victorian Cancer Registry (VCR) in Australia. The multi-year, multi-million-dollar contract extension will bring Inspirata’s E-Path Plus to Cancer Council Victoria’s network of 265 health services and 26 laboratories to support VCR’s ground-breaking accomplishments in shortening the time it takes to turn around cancer data and improving the accuracy of the data abstracted from cancer reports.
An important part of the Cancer Council Victoria, the Victorian Cancer Registry documents all instances of reportable cancer originating within the Australian state of Victoria, using this data to inform cancer policy development and monitor policy impact on cancer incidence, survival and mortality, and to release data for research purposes. Inspirata’s E-Path suite, already deployed in over 400 cancer centers and laboratories globally, draws on proprietary Natural Language Processing (NLP) and other clinically optimized AI to instantly interpret the text of diagnostic reports, identify reportable cases, and route them directly to the relevant cancer registry.
