Overview
The article is an overview of major trends in the development of diagnostic and clinical registries which constitute a significant component of the informational background of personalized medicine. The rapid development of diagnostic methods has allowed data analysis to enter into the decisions about diagnosis and treatment of many diseases. However, practical application of the analyses still has serious limits related to the availability of complex, quality data. The basic trends of research in this field are the increasing standardization of content and structure of clinical databases and their association with clinical patient’s records on an individual basis and ensuring the development of modern analytical tools.
Keywords:
