Scope:The specific challenge to be solved by this call topic is to provide early evidence of improved cancer patient care when using next-generation imaging technologies and image-guided solutions as part of combined cancer therapies. An optimised image-based care path from early diagnosis and screening to treatment and follow-up is essential to improve the outcome of cancer patients and help optimise clinical workflows and cancer patients' journey.

Innovative solutions in cancer diagnosis, therapy planning, interventions and outcomes can be achieved by pooling, linking, and using existing cancer patient imaging and other relevant data for the development of robust AI/ML-based algorithms and enhancing of image-guided tools in clinical settings. A key point underpinning the use of AI and ML in the fight against cancer is access to high quality data. Furthermore, there are limited recognised validation and performance evaluation frameworks for AI/ML-based diagnostic algorithms.

Within the framework of the European Cancer Imaging Initiative1 and building on the results of other relevant research projects, the proposal should enable secure, General Data Protection Regulation (EU GDPR) compliant and interoperable access to cancer imaging data sources for the purpose of developing and/or enhancing new innovative features of AI/ML-enabled tools used for diagnosis, prognosis, therapy planning, intervention, and follow up. Proposals should also focus on understanding challenges and propose sustainable solutions to close gaps in algorithm validation and algorithm evaluation in the context of developing AI/ML-based tools for cancer diagnosis and outcome prediction.

The proposal should aim to improve AI/ML-enabled imaging and image guided solutions in order to assist and guide clinicians during diagnosis, staging, patient monitoring, therapy planning, intervention and follow-up. Where appropriate, proposals should demonstrate novel ways to interact with the imaging data. The driving principle must be improving and enhancing image-based diagnosis and therapy, e.g. through automated image interpretation and segmentation, quantitative disease assessment, intuitive treatment planning and smart guidance both during treatment itself and in post-treatment monitoring of response to therapy, to enable more efficient patient-centric diagnosis/therapies/interventions and better patient outcomes.

The proposed research and innovation (R&I) activities should result in simplified clinical workflows, for instance through enhanced or complementary robotic-assisted procedures, thus resulting in more precise therapeutic and interventional procedures for patients, reduced workload on staff, a reduction in therapy planning and intervention time, and shorter recovery times/hospital stays.
