Labeling for Big Data in radiation oncology: The Radiation Oncology Structures ontology
PURPOSE Leveraging Electronic Health Records (EHR) and Oncology Information Systems (OIS) has great potential to generate hypotheses for cancer treatment, since they directly provide medical data on a large scale. In order to gather a significant amount of patients with a high level of clinical details, multicenter studies are necessary. A challenge in creating high quality Big Data studies inv...
متن کاملBig Data in Radiation Oncology: Challenges and Opportunities
to its full capacity without further delay. Firstly, the current feefor-service healthcare model in United States is not going to be sustainable. The United States spends about $640 billion or 17% of its Gross Domestic Product (GDP) on health care per year, much more than any other major developed countries such as the United Kingdom, Germany and Denmark, with outcomes no better than those of i...
متن کاملRadiation Oncology
Objective: Intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) is an exciting new technique with the potential to improve radiotherapy treatment by reducing dose to normal structures and increasing dose to the cancer. The objective was to investigate the potential value of IMRT in the treatment of sarcoma. To compare normal tissue sparing and treatment volume coverage for both three dimensional conformal (...
متن کاملHazards and risks in oncology: radiation oncology
Adverse effects and hazards which have their origin from radiation using conventional techniques like 3-D conformal radiotherapy and total radiation doses are well known. However little is known about the sprectum of especially late toxicity after radiation using new technologies like intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) combined with novel target volume and dose concepts. Since IMRT allows ...
متن کاملAdvances in radiation oncology.
Advances in radiation oncology have been made on three major fronts: biology, physics, and clinical application. Our biological understanding of how radiation kills cells and how malignant cells avoid damage has identified new targets for therapeutic manipulation. Research in physics has yielded sophisticated methods to direct the deposition of radiation energy in ways that enhance target cover...
