ABSTRACT

Digitalization is dramatically changing the entire healthcare system. Keywords such as artificial intelligence, electronic patient files (ePA), electronic prescriptions (eRp), telemedicine, wearables, augmented reality and digital health applications (DiGA) represent the digital transformation that is already taking place. Digital becomes real! This article outlines the state of research and development, current plans and ongoing uses of digital tools in oncology in the first half of 2024. The possibilities for using artificial intelligence and the use of DiGAs in oncology are presented in more detail in this overview according to their stage of development as they already show a noticeable benefit in oncology.
