Abstract
The fusion of cutting-edge imaging technologies with radiation therapy (RT) has catalyzed transformative breakthroughs in cancer treatment in recent decades. It is critical for us to review our achievements and preview into the next phase for future synergy between imaging and RT. This paper serves as a review and preview for fostering collaboration between these two domains in the forthcoming decade. Firstly, it delineates ten prospective directions ranging from technological innovations to leveraging imaging data in RT planning, execution, and preclinical research. Secondly, it presents major directions for infrastructure and team development in facilitating interdisciplinary synergy and clinical translation. We envision a future where seamless integration of imaging technologies into RT will not only meet the demands of RT but also unlock novel functionalities, enhancing accuracy, efficiency, safety, and ultimately, the standard of care for patients worldwide.
