Currently, health data in the real world are disorganized and scattered which limits the benefits that artificial intelligence can provide to medical physics and radiation oncology. The objective of our research project is to address this lack of organization and standardization by integrating, consolidating, and leveraging radiotherapy medical records using a new oncology data standard called the Minimal Common Oncology Data Elements (mCODE). This approach will facilitate the exchange of health data by constructing an oncology knowledge-based repository that contains comprehensive information. Our project would provide significant value to the oncology community by serving as a reliable source for digital twins development.
