Siemens Healthineers and Varian present AI solutions on the treatment planning pathway at ASTRO 2021

This year’s ASTRO annual meeting saw Siemens Healthineers and Varian focus on artificial intelligence (AI). In this short video, filmed at ASTRO 2021, Lisa-Marie Petzold from Siemens Healthineers explains how AI can support radiotherapy, for example, via the introduction of deep learning-based contouring of organs-at-risk. Varian’s Michelle Nystrom then describes how this autocontouring system integrates seamlessly with the Eclipse treatment planning system. She explains how AI contouring helps provide end-to-end treatment planning that is automated and efficient, without compromising on quality.
