AI auto-contouring and adaptive planning
Software that draws organs and tumours on scans automatically, saving hours per patient and making daily plan adaptation practical.
Deep-learning segmentation of organs at risk and targets (Limbus AI, MIM Software, TheraPanacea, Siemens AI-Rad Companion Organs RT, Varian Ethos and Elekta's ADMIRE, MVision, Carina) is now routine in many centres and FDA-cleared for dozens of structures. Target-volume contouring remains physician-reviewed. Online adaptive radiotherapy (Ethos, Unity) depends on it to re-plan in minutes.
How it works
Convolutional and transformer networks trained on expert contours segment CT/MR; outputs are edited and approved by clinicians.
- Consistency across planners
- Enables adaptive workflows
- Target delineation still needs experts
- Domain shift across scanners and protocols
- Liability and QA frameworks evolving
