Introduction. In Moscow, the state-of-the-art information technologies for cancer care data processing are widely used in routine practice. Data Science approaches are increasingly applied in the field of radiation oncology. Novel arrays of radiotherapy performance indices can be introduced into real-time cancer care quality and safety monitoring. The purpose of the study. The short review of the critical structural elements of automated Big Data processing and its perspectives in the light of the internal quality and safety control organization in radiation oncology departments. Material and methods. The PubMed (Medline) and E-Library databases were used to search the articles published mainly in the last 2-3 years. In total, about 20 reports were selected. Results. This paper highlights the applicability of the next-generation Data Science approaches to quality and safety assurance in radiation oncological units. The structural pillars for automated Big Data processing are considered. Big Data processing technologies can facilitate improvements in quality management at any radiotherapy stage. Simultaneously, the high requirements for quality and integrity across indices in the databases are crucial. Detailed dose data may also be linked to outcomes and survival indices integrated into larger registries. Discussion. Radiotherapy quality control could be automated to some extent through further introduction of information technologies making comparisons of the real-time quality measures with digital targets in terms of minimum norms / standards. The implementation of automated systems generating early electronic notifications and rapid alerts in case of serious quality violation could drastically improve the internal medical processes in local clinics. Conclusion. The role of Big Data tools in internal quality and safety control will dramatically increase over time.

Abstract The usage and exchange of “big data” is at the forefront of the data science agenda where Record Linkage plays a prominent role in biomedical research. In an era of ubiquitous data exchange and big data, Record Linkage is almost inevitable, but raises ethical and legal problems, namely personal data and privacy protection. Record Linkage refers to the general merging of data information to consolidate facts about an individual or an event that are not available in a separate record. This article provides an overview of ethical challenges and research opportunities in linking routine data on health and education with cohort data from very preterm (VPT) infants in Portugal. Portuguese, European and International law has been reviewed on data processing, protection and privacy. A three-stage analysis was carried out: i) interplay of threefold law-levelling for Record Linkage at different levels; ii) impact of data protection and privacy rights for data processing, iii) data linkage process' challenges and opportunities for research. A framework to discuss the process and its implications for data protection and privacy was created. The GDPR functions as utmost substantial legal basis for the protection of personal data in Record Linkage, and explicit written consent is considered the appropriate basis for the processing sensitive data. In Portugal, retrospective access to routine data is permitted if anonymised; for health data if it meets data processing requirements declared with an explicit consent; for education data if the data processing rules are complied. Routine health and education data can be linked to cohort data if rights of the data subject and requirements and duties of processors and controllers are respected. A strong ethical context through the application of the GDPR in all phases of research need to be established to achieve Record Linkage between cohort and routine collected records for health and education data of VPT infants in Portugal. Key messages GDPR is the most important legal framework for the protection of personal data, however, its uniform approach granting freedom to its Member states hampers Record Linkage processes among EU countries. The question remains whether the gap between data protection and privacy is adequately balanced at three legal levels to guarantee freedom for research and the improvement of health of data subjects.
