Monday Lunch Live
Barwon Health's experience of Artificial Intelligence (AI) Contouring implementation in Radiation Oncology
21 October 2024.
It is imperative to innovate and improve our health service with the latest technology. AI technology has many benefits but we need to fully understand and manage the risks and concerns for its application. Education, collaborations and partnership with colleagues and hospital executive/ senior management team are the key gateways to introduce AI technology effectively.
