New Smartphone App, ONCOassist, Certified by CE as a Medical Device

An app developed specifically for oncologists by an Irish software company has just received CE certification – the third app in the world to do so. ONCOassist is a new smartphone application developed specifically for oncologists that offers clinical decision support tools. Traditionally, oncologists have lost time searching for academic papers and complex formulas online. ONCOassist changes all of this by offering oncologists the required clinical decision support tools to be used at the point of care. Dr Richard Bambury, Eoin O’Carroll and Kevin Bambury are the founders of ONCOassist. All graduates of University College Cork, the team was recently selected out of hundreds of other applicants to participate in the prestigious Healthbox Europe start-up accelerator, located in the Hub Westminster, central London.
