Received grant in 2019

DCCC has funded 200,000 DKK to the project.

One of the cornerstones of modern radiotherapy is the ability to identify organs at risk on medical images, which is a time consuming routine task. New computer-based algorithms like machine learning and artificial intelligence (deep learning) are able to help automating this process. The project aims to create the opportunity to utilize these automatization features across various cancer sites and to gather oncology experts from across the country covering various anatomical groups to develop and validate future national contouring atlases.
