[5/5] This paper discusses use of #AI in a clinical setting, concluding that utility and safety evaluations must consider the whole workflow, not just accuracy metrics in isolation. However human-AI inter-operation shows great promise for improving #cancer #radiotherapy workflows.

[4/5] Blinded review showed gold standard clinician contours were not rated more highly than the AI-generated contours by independent reviewers. Crucially, when artificial errors were introduced into the system, clinical reviewers could spot these in the vast majority of cases.

[3/5] Our paper describes the extensive clinical evaluation and risk assessment undertaken - demonstrating improved overall workflow speed, accuracy comparable with highly skilled clinicians and existing software.

[2/5] #Contouring in radiotherapy is the process of "drawing round" all the organs at risk adjacent to a tumour - the bits you don't want to "zap" with nasty radiation. Our study showed that #AI can be used to do this faster than clinicians alone, who then review the contours.

🔖PUBLICATION DAY!.[1/5] Exploring use of Deep-Learning #AI models in #Radiotherapy for #cancer - our model, trained on a curated dataset, saved significant time vs clinicians alone as part of a clinical workflow, with better accuracy and error correction:.

We hope that this paper will contribute to this important and ongoing discussion in the fields of #AAC #AugComm and #AssistiveTechnology - there is huge potential here but the field must be careful about implementation.

Paper reports on a consultation at @Comm_Matters conference 2023 on the use, risks, benefits and ethics of integrating AI into #AAC #AugComm systems - opportunities for rate enhancement & novel utterance generation should be balanced against risks of bias, ownership & authorship.
