Abstract
This Chapter briefly explains the term eHealth and its current status of implementation in the Czech health care system. The list of priorities of the Czech eHealth programme is supplemented with comments on the achievements in this field attained thus far by the Czech oncologists.
The MEFANET project, which is briefly introduced in this chapter section, helps to enhance mutual cooperation among the Czech and Slovak faculties of medicine with respect to the use of modern ICT in education. The Chapter mentions also other electronic resources which can be employed for education in various fields of cancer care, such as cancer epidemiology, chemotherapy regimens, or information on Czech oncology and malignant tumours in general.
