Abstract

OBJECTIVES: Clinical artificial intelligence and machine learning (ML) face barriers related to implementation and trust. There have been few prospective opportunities to evaluate these concerns. System for High Intensity EvaLuation During Radiotherapy (NCT03775265) was a randomised controlled study demonstrating that ML accurately directed clinical evaluations to reduce acute care during cancer radiotherapy. We characterised subsequent perceptions and barriers to implementation.
