Popis: Background/Aims Cancer prognosis is one of the leading topics of interest for cancer patients, their caregivers and providers. Literature suggests that nomograms that use prognostic algorithms integrating several predictors improve prognostic accuracy. There has been increasing interest in the availability and use of web-based tools by both health care providers and patients for obtaining information about health promotion and disease management. Our study aimed to review the available online cancer prognostic tools, to provide input on the implications for their use in clinical settings, and to create a centralized repository for providers to access.
