Deep learning AI for deep tissue scans: a lesson from digital technology

The WHO has reported that new digital software is making radiation therapy more effective in Slovakia. When planning how to conduct radiation therapy, scans are often necessary but new, artificial intelligence (AI) technology has made this process easier enabling the patient to access treatment faster.
