Appendix 2: Clinical Annotations

This section outlines all the clinical annotations available in caTissue Suite.

Data Entry for Clinical Information Annotation

This section outlines the various annotations found under the participant hook entity.

Lab Annotation

This annotation helps you to capture information on the clinical and laboratory tests that the participant has undergone or is undergoing.

Table 30: Lab Annotation


Family History Annotation

This annotation helps you to capture the data related to the family medical history of the participant for family members. For each family member, you can capture details of one or more clinical diagnosis.

To delete a row that contains data about the duration of treatment, select the check box next to the row and click Delete.

Rad RX Annotation

This annotation allows you to enter the details about the radiation therapy that the participant is undergoing or has undergone.

Table 33: Rad RX Annotation


Chemo RX Annotation

This annotation allows you to enter details about the chemotherapy that the participant is undergoing or has undergone.


Table 34: Chemo RX Annotation

Treatment Regimen

This annotation helps you to capture any treatment as a part of a well-defined treatment regimen. A treatment regimen may involve one or more chemotherapy or radiation therapy or a combination of both.

Table 35: Treatment Regimen

Once you add the Chemotherapy or Radiation Therapy information, enter data for each row as described above for Chemo RX Annotation and RAD RX Annotation respectively.


Environmental Exposure Health Annotation

This annotation helps in capturing information about the environmental hazards or agents to which the participant is subjected to and the duration of the exposure.

Table 36: Environmental Exposure Health Annotation


Alcohol Health Annotation

This annotation captures the data about the alcohol consumption history of the participant.

Table 37: Alcohol Health Annotation

Smoking Health Annotation

This annotation captures information about the smoking history of the participant.

This annotation helps you to capture information about the procedures, which confirms that the participant has no evident disease.

Table 41: No Evident Disease Health Annotation

Recurrence Health Examination Annotation

This annotation captures information about the procedures and diagnosis of recurrence of a disease diagnosed in the participant earlier.

Table 42: Recurrence Health Examination Annotation

Local Recurrence Health Examination Annotation

This annotation captures information about the procedures used to diagnose recurrence of a disease diagnosed in the participant within the local anatomic site (same site where the disease was diagnosed earlier) in the body.

Table 43: Local Recurrence Health Examination Annotation

Distant Recurrence Health Examination Annotation

This annotation captures information about the procedures used to diagnose recurrence of a disease diagnosed in the participant at a distant anatomic site (site other than where the disease was diagnosed earlier) in the body.
