AI Radiation Therapy Planning for Oncology

Let your AI agent handle field layouts, dosage calculations, and compliance checks—so you can focus on patient outcomes, not tedious admin work.

As a dosimetrist or radiation oncologist, you spend hours in Eclipse or ARIA, manually adjusting fields and recalculating doses in Excel. Every case means triple-checking critical structures and writing up documentation in Word. The risk of missing an organ or making a calculation error is always in the back of your mind, and the pressure to stay compliant never lets up.

An AI agent that arranges radiation fields, calculates doses, and drafts documentation for oncology teams, reducing errors and saving hours each week.

What this replaces

Adjust field parameters in Varian Eclipse for each patient
Recalculate radiation doses using Excel after anatomy changes
Cross-check critical organ coverage on CT scans
Draft treatment summaries and compliance notes in Word
Review plans against NCCN guidelines manually

The hidden cost

What this is really costing you

In hospital oncology departments, dosimetrists and radiation oncologists waste 2 hours each week manually arranging fields, recalculating doses, and drafting treatment plans in Varian Eclipse, ARIA, and Excel. Each case requires careful cross-referencing of patient scans, protocol guidelines, and compliance documentation. Small mistakes can lead to patient harm, failed audits, or regulatory action.

Time wasted

2 hrs/week

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

Money lost

$7,800/year

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

If you keep ignoring it

Ignoring this leads to increased risk of organ damage, failed compliance audits, and potential delays in patient treatment. Repeated manual errors can trigger regulatory scrutiny and damage your department’s reputation.

AI Agent FAQ

Yes, the agent supports both standard and complex scenarios. You always review and approve the final plan. For multi-modality or rare cases, the agent provides draft arrangements and highlights areas needing special attention.

The agent can access DICOM data from Varian Eclipse and export documentation compatible with ARIA. For dose calculations, it processes data from your existing Excel templates or direct system exports.

All patient information is encrypted in transit using TLS 1.3 and never stored after processing. The agent operates within your hospital’s secure network and complies with HIPAA requirements.

No, you remain in control. The agent provides recommendations and drafts, but you review, edit, and approve all final treatment plans. It’s designed to reduce manual workload, not replace expertise.

You can specify organ constraints, preferred field arrangements, and protocol variations. The agent adapts its outputs to your requirements and flags any conflicts with guidelines.
