Description

Audit a supplied scoped pseudonym mapping for collisions; the operation neither creates anonymization nor authenticates identity.

Research lesion records distinguish measured dimensions, geometric size models, censoring conventions, assessment denominators, and follow-up timing. An axis product, percent change, or coverage measure describes only its stated inputs and model. Such arithmetic does not automatically implement a clinical response criterion or validate a study.

Audit a supplied scoped pseudonym mapping for collisions; the operation neither creates anonymization nor authenticates identity.

When to use this tool

Use Oncology Data Extract Pseudonym Scope when you need this research measurement, assessment-base, source, or event-time calculation.

How to use the tool and how it works

  1. Enter sourceIds, pseudonyms, scope. Keep parallel arrays aligned. Use the units and conventions below.
  2. Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
  3. Read keys, uniqueMapping, collisionPseudonyms. Inspect uniqueMapping before interpreting the associated values.

Require aligned sourceIds and pseudonyms, unique sourceIds, and nonempty scope. Return keys=JSON.stringify([scope,pseudonym]) per row, uniqueMapping when pseudonyms do not repeat, and distinct collisionPseudonyms in repeated-occurrence order.1

Limitations and assumptions

  • No pseudonyms are generated, encrypted, hashed, or anonymized. Namespacing and duplicate checks do not guarantee privacy, prevent reidentification, authorize data use, or validate mappings across scopes.
  • Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.

Alternative or Complementary methods

Use the intended study protocol and a complete measurement or analysis model for a broader conclusion. Verify lesion definitions, censoring, measurement correspondence, time anchors, and missing-assessment policy.
