An informatics platform provides an architecture to integrate information from relevant patient information systems. The informatics platform may include: a workflow tool that can be used to prepare and review information at multi-disciplinary board meetings; a visual timeline of patient events; a search engine to search for patients with specific attributes; a graphing tool that can display disparate clinical variables in a single chart; a virtual PinBoard for users to identify relevant patient information for board meetings; an image viewing application that can provide for comparison of images from different information systems; structured reporting functionality that incorporates system aggregated patient information and board recommendations; an application interface that integrates clinically relevant tools to provide patient specific references; a collaboration interface that facilitates communication of patient specific information and documents the discussion threads as independent reference points; and a default display of relevant patient information customized for each clinical specialty.
