Millions of cancer patients will get a faster diagnosis with new technology to be rolled out across the NHS, the Department for Health and Social Care (DHSC) has said.

The tool, called Cancer 360, brings cancer patients’ data into one central system, so clinicians can prioritise those most in need and see patients quicker, the DHSC said.
