Abstract:
Adaptive radiotherapy (ART) can adjust the treatment plan at one or certain time points during the process, thereby responding to inter-fractional and/or intra-fractional changes in the patient's organs. The ART strategy refers to the specific methods used to adjust the treatment plan in the ART process, proper selection of an ART strategy is crucial to balancing treatment time and dose benefits. Currently, the strategy selection relies mainly on the subjective judgment of medical professionals. In recent years, both domestic and international medical institutions have employed artificial intelligence methods to build prediction models for automatic, fast and accurate selection of ART strategies. This article reviews the strategy selection of online ART, and sequentially introduces the types of strategies currently provided by the ART commercial systems, the current status and existing problems of ART strategy selection by medical institutions, and the present research status and application prospects of automatic ART strategy selection.
