| Summary: | Introduction Breast cancer is a prevalent global disease, and radiotherapy plays a crucial role in its treatment. However, radiotherapy may lead to cardiac complications, particularly in patients receiving left-sided radiotherapy who may experience increased risks due to toxicity in the left anterior descending (LAD) artery. The manual contouring of the LAD artery is time-consuming and subject to variability. This study aimed to provide an overview of artificial intelligence (AI) based LAD artery contouring, assess its feasibility, and identify its limitations. |
