Cancer patients often wait for weeks to begin radiation therapy that they urgently need. Computer scientist Fernando Vega and his team want to reduce this to just hours. The AI driven software solutions they are working on aim to optimize the entire radiation therapy planning and delivery workflow. The researchers are using AI to link single imaging and therapy systems with the goal of making them act like one system. This benefits patients, who could receive a quicker and more personalized treatment thanks to this technology, and assists and relieves clinical staff from tedious tasks.
