The American Cancer Society estimates that approximately 1.3 million new cancer cases are expected to be diagnosed in the year 2002. Staging is essential in assessing prognosis and determining the choice of therapy. To aid in this process, Lightning Rounds, Inc., has created EZTNM®. EZTNM® is the premier cancer staging program for the Palm Operating System and Windows Mobile® PDAs. EZTNM® is the only physician designed and professional grade cancer staging program for handhelds, and with it you can stage all cancer types which follow the TNM guidelines as stated by the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) Cancer Staging Manual, 6th edition, and the Union Internationale Contre le Cancer (UICC). At your fingertips are almost 50 different cancer types organized by anatomic region. EZTNM® uses a dynamic and incredibly intuitive TNM selection process that is truly revolutionary. You can see the definition for each T, N, and M parameter as you work and have EZTNM® calculate the stage of disease once all parameters are entered. You may also view the stage grouping tables for all cancers directly if you choose.

Also included in EZTNM® are alternate staging schemes for comparison and teaching purposes where possible (e.g., the modified Astler-Coller system for colon cancer, and the Clark's and Breslow's schemes for melanoma).

Not only do you get all of these features, but you also have the ability to create a detailed patient information record and maintain a patient list to keep track of all of your cancer patients.

EZTNM® is intended for use by oncologists, fellows, residents, medical students, nurse practitioners, and any other health care workers who find themselves needing a professional, handy, quick, and reliable TNM staging reference. Imagine how useful this will be in tumor boards, on rounds, during clinic, or in the classroom.
