From February 6-8th 2025, the 1st National Oncology Conference – Cyprus, took place in Nicosia and was organised by the Cyprus Society of Oncology.
Dr Efthyvoulos Kyriacou participated, presenting the eCAN Joint Action and the Digital Tools developed for Oncology.
This initiative focuses on integrating telemonitoring and teleconsultation into cancer care to enhance patient support and healthcare delivery.
Through pilot studies, we evaluated the impact of digital tools on newly diagnosed and recurrent cancer patients, uncovering both opportunities and challenges.
Our results demonstrate a positive impact on patients’ quality of life, while also highlighting key barriers such as user acceptance, digital literacy gaps, and the need for trained personnel to ensure successful implementation.
