Problem the AI is intended to solve
Workflow Box is a data routing and image processing tool which automatically applies contours to data that is sent to one or more of the included image processing workflows. Contours generated by Workflow Box may be used as an input to clinical workflows, including, but not limited to, radiation therapy treatment planning. Workflow Box must be used in conjunction with appropriate software to review and edit results generated automatically by Workflow Box components. For example, image visualization software must be used to facilitate the review and edit of contours generated by Workflow Box component applications. Workflow Box is intended to be used by trained medical professionals. Workflow Box is not intended to automatically detect lesions.
Expected benefits
Accelerates radiology workflows: Workflow Box is a software application that enables the routing of image data and structures to automatic image processing workflows, including atlas based contouring, image registration based re-contouring and machine learning based contouring. Workflow Box data routing and contouring workflows support CT, MR and RTSTRUCT image data and structures. Workflow Box supports the routing of data to and from DICOM nodes within a hospital network.
System outputs
Workflow Box is a data routing and image processing tool which automatically applies contours to data which is sent to one or more of the included image processing workflows.
