Article Synopsis
- Radiotherapy treatment planning is shifting towards more automation, similar to the changes seen in the aviation industry, raising concerns about human roles and risks within these automated systems.
- A working group at the ESTRO Physics Workshop 2023 suggested a framework based on aviation insights, outlining different levels of automation in radiotherapy and their impact on human involvement.
- Key risks of this automation include complacency and data overload, which necessitate strategies like checklists and proper training to ensure effective human-automation collaboration while maintaining the critical need for human oversight in complex clinical scenarios.*
Gamification involves using game design elements in non-game contexts. It is an emerging strategy that, being able to motivate consumer engagement with brands, has been increasingly used by companies in marketing activities. Recently, the application of gamification to marketing has become increasingly popular, with an increasing amount of research outputs.

The aim of the study was to assess the need for adaptive radiotherapy (ART) in head and neck (H&N) cancer patients using an automatic planning tool in a retrospective planning study.
Materials And Methods: Thirty H&N patients treated with adaptive radiotherapy were analysed.
