Abstract:
Salivary gland tumors require comprehensive data collection and analysis to support clinical decision-making, yet existing databases need more focus on specific tumor-related data and visualization tools. This absence hinders oncologists’ ability to track patient outcomes effectively and identify potential prognostic indicators. To address this, we developed the Czech Salivary Gland Database (CSGDB), a specialized clinical application designed to manage patient data and provide visual analytics. The database includes secure and anonymized data handling alongside Kaplan-Meier survival analysis for outcome visualization. Deployed at the University Hospital in Motol, CSGDB empowers healthcare professionals with enhanced tools for tracking and analyzing patient progress, ultimately contributing valuable data and insights to the field of head and neck oncology.
