Research progress on application of artificial intelligence in radiotherapy for gynecological malignancy / 中华放射肿瘤学杂志

ABSTRACT

The gynecological malignancy has a high incidence and mortality. More efficient treatment methods still need to be explored to improve the survival benefits. Artificial intelligence (AI) aims to intelligently process the original problems by simulating the thinking way of human brain. It has obtained significant progress in gynecological malignancy, with great potential in the field of cancer diagnosis and treatment. This paper reviews the application of AI in the diagnosis and treatment of gynecological malignancy, and mainly introduces the research progress on AI in the radiotherapy. This paper mainly focuses on the key issues such as automatic delineation, dose prediction, radiotoxicity prediction and efficacy prediction, and discusses the current benefits and limitations of AI in radiotherapy of gynecological malignancy.
