We are pleased to share a new study published in Acta Oncologica exploring radiation oncologists’ perspectives on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) to predict the risk of chronic diseases in people treated for early breast cancer. The findings show strong support for AI-generated risk prediction, particularly for cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis, highlighting its potential to improve personalized survivorship care.
The study, “Perspectives on artificial intelligence-generated chronic disease risk predictions in early breast cancer: an international survey among radiation oncologists”, explores radiation oncologists’ views on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) to predict the risk of chronic diseases in people treated for early breast cancer.
The survey found strong support for AI-generated risk prediction, particularly for cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis. These findings highlight the growing acceptance of AI-based tools among healthcare professionals and their potential to support more personalized survivorship care through earlier identification of long-term health risks.
As part of the ARTILLERY project, this research contributes to the development of trustworthy AI solutions that use routinely acquired radiotherapy planning CT scans to help identify patients at increased risk of chronic conditions and improve long-term follow-up care for breast cancer survivors.
Congratulations to all authors and collaborators on this achievement!
ARTILLERY project is funded by the European Union.
