Publisher's Synopsis
Adaptive radiation therapy (ART) is a form of radiation therapy that uses real-time imaging to adjust the radiation dose and target volume during treatment, improving the accuracy of radiation delivery and minimizing damage to healthy tissue. Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been increasingly used in ART to automate and optimize the treatment planning and delivery process. The application of AI in ART is a hot topic in radiation therapy, given the urgent demand from practitioners for systematically organized references.
This new title aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the use of AI in radiation therapy (RT), with the focus on adaptive radiation therapy (ART). It will cover a range of topics related to AI and ART, including image segmentation, adaptive treatment planning, real-time image guidance, personalized medicine, clinical applications, and regulatory and ethical considerations.
