Examples

# This function builds chart of categorical outcomes for individal patients over time
# It allows a two dimensional visualisation of patient progress. A perfect example is 
# visualising the Barrett's progression for patients on surveillance and then
# therapy if dysplasia develops and highlighting recurrence if it happens
# Barretts_df <- BarrettsAll(Myendo, "Findings", "OGDReportWhole", Mypath, "Histology")
# myNotableWords<-c("No_IM","IM","LGD","HGD","T1a","IGD","SM1","SM2")
# PatientFlowIndividual(Barretts_df,"IMorNoIM",myNotableWords,DateofProcedure,"HospitalNumber")
# Once the function is run you should always call dev.off()
