Conclusion
• By this proposed system, the cancer patients
from any part of India can get the consultation
and treatment from any RCC in India
• The rest of India will follow ONCONET-Kerala
pattern in the coming years
APAN-Healthcare-2009
• This ONCONET- India with appropriate low-
37

cost technology might be able to be
duplicated as a model for developing
