摘要
With increasingly explored ideologies and technologies for potential applications of artificial intelligence(AI)in oncology,we here describe a holistic and structured concept termed intelligent oncology.Intelligent oncology is defined as a cross-disciplinary specialty which integrates oncology,radiology,pathology,molecular biology,multi-omics and computer sciences,aiming to promote cancer prevention,screening,early diagnosis and precision treatment.The development of intelligent oncology has been facilitated by fast AI technology development such as natural language processing,machine/deep learning,computer vision,and robotic process automation.While the concept and applications of intelligent oncology is still in its infancy,and there are still many hurdles and challenges,we are optimistic that it will play a pivotal role for the future of basic,translational and clinical oncology.
