Lite for Pathlabs: Cancer Reporting Software
SANDCRAB (Statewide Algorithm
aNd Database
for Cancer Registration
and ABatement) Lite
for Pathlabs is a cancer abstract reporting software designed
for use by Pathology Labs that report to the Texas Cancer Registry
(TCR). It is a scaled down version of the SANDCRAB software that
is used by the TCR to process and store all reported cases. SANDCRAB
Lite for Pathlabs was developed by the TCR to meet new state reporting
requirements.
- SANDCRAB
Lite for Pathlabs (SCL-P) has on-line edit checking for resolution
of errors prior to data submission, pop-up selection boxes
for looking up codes and the capability to display or print
reference reports from the data entered by the reporting institution.
SCL-P allows pathology cases to be transmitted electronically
to the TCR, thus eliminating paper reporting forms. Data may
be submitted to the TCR via diskette or file transfer protocol
(FTP).
- SCL-P may
be used on your network.
