Tumor Board Collaboration Platform

Principal workflows

• Submit: A clinician or navigator submits a case for a specific board, with the clinical question they want answered. The coordinator accepts it onto an agenda.
• Prepare: The platform gathers the case's pathology reports, imaging studies, notes, labs and molecular results. Each specialist prepares and signs off their section before the meeting.
• Present: During the conference, the case view is shared on screen and in person or online, and attendance is recorded for each case.
• Record: The board's recommendation is written, confirmed by the chair and sent to the treating team and the patient's chart. Follow-up and registry data are tracked.

Who uses it

• Hospital and health system cancer programs that run multidisciplinary tumor boards
• Tumor board coordinators and oncology nurse navigators
• Medical, surgical and radiation oncologists who present and discuss cases
• Pathologists and radiologists who review cases before the conference
• Cancer registrars and program leaders who report to accrediting bodies

Reporting

• Readiness of upcoming conference cases by section
• Recommendations awaiting confirmation
• Cases presented, prospective discussion and disease sites
• Attendance by specialty for each conference
• Stage, guideline and clinical trial documentation gaps
• Recommendation follow-through by the treating team

Features

• Single case view: Pathology, imaging, notes, labs, molecular results, staging and treatment history for the case on one screen.
• Case submission: A structured request with the clinical question, so cases arrive with the information the board needs.
• Agenda builder: Conference agendas by board and date, with case order, presenters and readiness status for each case.
• Specialist preparation: Pathologists and radiologists mark the findings, slides and images to show, and sign off their section before the meeting.
• Draft case summaries: The platform proposes a case summary from the record, which the presenter edits and approves before it is shown.
• Imaging and slide launch: Key studies and digital slides open in your existing PACS and pathology viewers directly from the case.
• Staging and guidelines: Fields for clinical and pathologic stage and for the guideline your board referenced, recorded with each case.
• Clinical trial consideration: Records whether trials were discussed and which ones, and can pass candidates to Moraph's Clinical Trial Patient Recruitment App.
• Recommendation record: The board's recommendation written, confirmed by the chair and sent to the chart as a note.
• Attendance tracking: Attendance by person and specialty for each conference and case, in person or online.
• Accreditation reporting: Cases presented, prospective discussion, stage and guideline documentation and attendance, for your cancer committee's reports.
• Audit trail: Every view, edit, sign-off and recommendation is logged with the person and time.

Integrations

• Electronic health record: Notes, problem lists, medications, labs and treatment history read from your EHR by FHIR or HL7 v2, and recommendations returned as a note.
• Laboratory and pathology system: Pathology reports, including synoptic data where your laboratory produces it, and molecular results.
• PACS and imaging: Imaging reports and study lists, with key studies opened in your PACS or enterprise viewer by link from the case.
• Digital pathology viewer: Where you have whole-slide imaging, slides open in your digital pathology viewer from the case.
• Cancer registry: Conference data made available to your registry software for abstraction and reporting.
• Video conferencing: Conferences held online through the meeting service you already use, with the meeting link on the agenda.
• Single sign-on: Staff sign in through your identity provider (SAML or OpenID Connect).
• Work API: Conference, case and recommendation data available to your data warehouse and to Moraph's Clinical Trial Patient Recruitment App.

Deployment

• Moraph cloud: Hosted and operated by Moraph in the United States region. United Kingdom and Australia regions are available for organizations outside the US.
• Dedicated environment: A single-tenant environment for organizations whose policies require isolation, scoped in the proposal.
• With a managed service: Optionally run alongside Moraph managed services for clinical collaboration, single sign-on or integration engine support.

Security and privacy

• Single sign-on: Staff sign in through your identity provider, so your password and multi-factor policies apply.
• Role-based access: Access follows role and board membership, so people see only the cases they are preparing or discussing.
• Business associate agreement: Moraph signs a business associate agreement with you, because the platform handles protected health information.
• Encryption and keys: Client data is encrypted, with keys Moraph staff cannot use without explicit, time-bound authorization.
• Complete audit trail: Every view, edit, sign-off, recommendation and export is logged with the person and time, and cannot be edited.
• Data residency: Data stays in the hosting region you choose: the United States, the United Kingdom or Australia.

Limitations

• It does not make treatment decisions. Recommendations are made by your board and the treating physician remains responsible for the patient's care.
• Draft case summaries are proposals. The presenter must review and approve each summary, and the source record remains authoritative.
• It is not a PACS or a diagnostic viewer. Images and digital slides stay in and open from your existing systems.
• Pathology and imaging reports are not amended in the platform; corrections are made in the laboratory or radiology system.
• It is not cancer registry software. It provides conference data to your registry; abstraction and submission are done by your registrars.
• Accreditation reports present your data; meeting accreditation standards is your cancer program's responsibility.
• The case view is only as complete as the source systems connected during implementation.
• Online conferences use the meeting service you already have; the platform does not host video.
