Digital support and artificial intelligence in cancer patients undergoing radiation therapy: patient utilization, acceptance and attitudes

While patients are generally open to the use of AI in healthcare, their concerns underscore the need for future research into the physician's role in ensuring its responsible, safe, and patient-centered utilization. Strengthening DHL, improving information provision, and reducing access barriers for vulnerable groups may enable a more effective integration of new technologies into routine cancer care.

Abstract

While patients are generally open to the use of AI in healthcare, their concerns underscore the need for future research into the physician's role in ensuring its responsible, safe, and patient-centered utilization. Strengthening DHL, improving information provision, and reducing access barriers for vulnerable groups may enable a more effective integration of new technologies into routine cancer care.
