Clinical professionals at the University of Debrecen, one of Hungary’s most advanced cancer centers, treat between 150 and 200 patients daily. Among them was a glioblastoma patient whose journey from consultation to first treatment spanned 18 to 21 days. This process required manual multi-system registration, paper-based prescriptions, and 4 to 6 hours of physician contouring time.
A breast cancer patient faced similar delays of 14 to 16 days, largely due to redundant data entry across disconnected systems. These inefficiencies contributed to error rates of up to 8 percent in treatment parameters.
