Other Workshop: The Role and Potential of AI and Quantum Computing in Radiotherapy
04-06-2026 12:00 pm Add to iCal
This workshop explores how AI and quantum computing are reshaping the landscape of radiotherapy, from treatment planning and imaging to personalised patient care and optimisation of clinical workflows.
Organiser: Region Stockholm and The University Alliance Stockholm Trio, a partnership between Karolinska Institutet, KTH Royal Institute of Technology and Stockholm University.
The event aims to bridge the gap between clinical practice and emerging computational technologies, offering an interdisciplinary forum for clinicians, physicists, engineers, and researchers to exchange ideas and foster collaborations.
Key Topics
- AI-driven image segmentation, dose prediction, and adaptive planning
- Radiomics and predictive modelling for personalised treatment response
- Deep learning architectures for medical imaging and treatment planning
- Data quality, bias, and ethics in AI-driven radiotherapy
- Quantum algorithms for optimisation problems in radiotherapy planning
- Quantum machine learning, emerging applications in oncology
Target Audience
Clinical oncologists, radiation oncologists, medical physicists, data scientists, AI and quantum-computing researchers, biomedical engineers, and PhD students working at the interface of medicine, physics, and computer science.
