The first AI-guided toxicity atlas for safer and more effective abdominal radiation therapy
Radiotherapy (RT) is a critical component of cancer treatment, potentially benefiting approximately 50% of patients. However, less than 80% of patients who could benefit from RT actually receive it in Europe. The risk of toxicities, i.e., the radiation-induced damage of healthy tissues, is one of the main reasons why oncologists may exclude a potentially beneficial RT from the treatment regimen. For example, a recent analysis of the RTOG 0617 trial highlighted that the tumor control benefits of high-dose lung RT are accompanied by higher mortality rates due to extensive heart irradiation. The AIDose project will leverage my work on hepatobiliary toxicity prediction, artificial intelligence…
