Abstrakt: Communication surrounding cancer treatment involves clinicians, patients, families, friends and others affected by the illness. The aim of this work is to create an informatics system that can support the communication needs of cancer patients and their formal and informal caregivers. Based on interviews with patients and family/friend caregivers, a prototype web-based communication system was created with an emphasis on the interpersonal relationships between patients, families, and clinicians.
