LEXINGTON, Ky. (Sept. 23, 2020) – A study led by researchers at the University of Kentucky Markey Cancer Center highlighted differences in patient diagnosis and treatment in those with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) across the state of Kentucky. Recently published in PLOS One, the study used Kentucky Cancer Registry patient data from 2007-2011 to identify trends in epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation testing and the usage of the EGFR inhibitor, erlotinib. EGFR mutations are common in NSCLC.

New Search Engine Capabilities Can Expose Patient Identifiers Thought to Be Anonymized Search engines can now index patient identifiers in slide presentations that were previously believed to have been de-identified. RSNA, ACR and SIIM urge radiologists and allied professionals to use the guidance below to help ensure that no protected health information (PHI) exists in their presentations. Organizations that may host such content should ensure that it is appropriately de-identified.
