Scientific Aim

RAPID Solution focuses on a practical radiotherapy planning problem in breast cancer: deciding when deep inspiration breath hold is likely to provide a relevant dosimetric and clinical advantage.

The project combines imaging, respiratory tracking, synthetic CT datasets, and deep learning to build a decision support workflow that can guide patient selection during the planning phase.

The expected output is an interpretable AI-assisted tool that helps reduce cardiac exposure and supports efficient, personalized radiotherapy planning.
