CHAT-RT study: ChatGPT in radiation oncology—a survey on usage, perception, and impact among DEGRO members
Our survey demonstrates high awareness and adoption of ChatGPT for administrative and educational tasks, alongside more cautious use in clinical decision-making. Widespread concerns about misinformation, critical-thinking erosion, and data privacy-especially among early- and mid-career clinicians-underscore the need for targeted AI training, rigorous validation, and transparent governance to ensure safe, effective integration into patient care.
