Precision oncology, utilizing deep learning methods, plays a crucial role in personalized cancer treatment. This paper provides an overview of recent deep learning approaches in precision oncology and reviews studies in various anatomical areas. It also highlights the challenges and potential solutions for future research directions.
Precision oncology, which ensures optimized cancer treatment tailored to the unique biology of a patient's disease, has rapidly developed and is of great clinical importance. Deep learning has become the main method for precision oncology. This paper summarizes the recent deep-learning approaches relevant to precision oncology and reviews over 150 articles within the last six years. First, we survey the deep-learning approaches categorized by various precision oncology tasks, including the estimation of dose distribution for treatment planning, survival analysis and risk estimation after treatment, prediction of treatment response, and patient selection for treatment planning. Secondly, we provide an overview of the studies per anatomical area, including the brain, bladder, breast, bone, cervix, esophagus, gastric, head and neck, kidneys, liver, lung, pancreas, pelvis, prostate, and rectum. Finally, we highlight the challenges and discuss potential solutions for future research directions.
