The Board of INSCYTE Corporation is comprised of eight directors. Each of the three founding laboratories appoints two senior executives from their staff as directors, two are appointed by CancerCare Ontario and the remaining two are ad hoc appointments by the Board.

One member of the Board is elected as President and assumes responsibility for the ongoing operations of CytoBase.

The role of information systems manager has been contracted to Artificial Intelligence In Medicine. AIM undertakes responsibility for the operation of the computer systems, database administration, programmer and analyst functions, quality assurance and the day to day operations and maintenance of CytoBase.

Member laboratories provide reports for registration in CytoBase and rely on the database for current patient histories to assist in the diagnostic process. Each facility is organized slightly differently, but will have a CytoBase site liaison manager who is responsible for the actives of the users.

A license agreement between each member laboratory and INSCYTE Corporation defines the responsibilities of the entities. All users who have access to CytoBase data sign confidentiality and non- disclosure agreements on an annual basis.

The Ontario Cervical Screening Program, established by CancerCare Ontario, relies on CytoBase as a data source and for the management of the information required to implement and operate the program.
