The AI system scored a 79 percent accuracy rate in tumor target contouring in the research led by Sun Ying, a professor at the cancer center.
In 66 of the 203 research samples, the AI-automated contouring results could be used for radiation therapy planning without any correction, and in other 114 samples, only minor corrections were necessary.
An article on the research was published in international science journal Radiology on March 26.
