Ethical Aspects of Artificial Intelligence in Radiation Oncology.

Radiation oncology is a field that heavily relies on new technology. Data science and artificial intelligence will have an important role in the entire radiotherapy workflow. A new paradigm of routine healthcare data reuse to automate treatments and provide decision support is emerging. This review will discuss the ethical aspects of the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in radiation oncology. More specifically, the review will discuss the evolution of work through the ages, as well as the impact AI will have on it. We will then explain why AI opens a new technical era for the field and we will conclude on the challenges in the years to come.
