Abstract

Savings in health care costs, system efficiency, and improved patient satisfaction accruing from a real-time (simultaneous) approach to treatment of skin cancer is examined. The hypothesized benefits of a real-time system design are estimated using a SLAM based simulation model of a typical dermatology clinic specializing in the treatment of basal cell and squamous cell carcinomas.
