IMRT and Automation
1.
exploit pertinent trends in manufacturing and informatics
2.
Its already happening
3.
Imperative to improve quality, support continuing
advancements in care.
Adaptive RT concept is 15 years old.
Exploit the “Third wave of computing” .
Adaptive RT must be “more than safe”, ie embrace a broader definition
of quality to ensure that clinical decisions and technical procedures are
evidence based, effective, equitable, timely, and highly tailored to each
patient.
A higher level of robust quality by design, rather than through organic
innovation.
