AIMS: Artificial intelligence has the potential to transform the radiotherapy workflow, resulting in improved quality, safety, accuracy and timeliness of radiotherapy delivery. Several commercially available artificial intelligence-based auto-contour...
INTRODUCTION: The use of artificial intelligence (AI) has increased in medical radiation science, with advanced computing and modelling. Considering radiation therapists (RTs) perceptions of how this may affect their role is imperative, as this will ...
BACKGROUND: Routinely delineating of important skeletal growth centers is imperative to mitigate radiation-induced growth abnormalities for pediatric cancer patients treated with radiotherapy. However, it is hindered by several practical problems, in...
Radiotherapy is a discipline closely integrated with computer science. Artificial intelligence (AI) has developed rapidly over the past few years. With the explosive growth of medical big data, AI promises to revolutionize the field of radiotherapy t...
