DAART: a deep learning platform for deeply accelerated adaptive radiation therapy for lung cancer

Purpose: The study aimed to implement a novel, deeply accelerated adaptive radiation therapy (DAART) approach for lung cancer radiotherapy (RT). Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer-related death, and RT is the preferred medically inoperable treatment for early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In the current lengthy workflow, it takes a median of four weeks from diagnosis to RT treatment, which can result in complete …
