AI Device Recommendation for Radiation Oncology

Let your AI agent handle device selection, protocol summaries, and documentation—so you can focus on patient care instead of paperwork.

You spend hours each week as a dosimetrist searching NCCN guidelines in Excel, drafting device recommendations in Outlook, and answering repetitive device questions from the oncology team in Epic. Every manual step increases the risk of errors and delays, keeping your expertise tied up in admin work instead of clinical decisions.

An AI agent that advises dosimetrists and oncology teams on selecting and documenting beam modifying and immobilization devices for treatment plans.

The hidden cost

What this is really costing you

In healthcare, dosimetrists are responsible for recommending devices for radiation treatment plans. This often means digging through NCCN or ASTRO protocols in shared drives, drafting guidance in email, and entering documentation into Epic or Mosaiq. These repetitive tasks waste valuable time and can lead to inconsistent device choices, risking patient safety and treatment delays.

Time wasted

1.5-2 hours/week

Every week, burned on work an AI agent handles in minutes.

Money lost

In salary, missed revenue, and operational drag — annually.

If you keep ignoring it

Ignoring this issue leads to delayed treatment planning, inconsistent device selection, and increased risk of documentation errors—potentially resulting in compliance violations or compromised patient outcomes.
