In February of 2020, Arlington Innovation Center – Health Research at Virginia Tech, in collaboration with partners at RadPhysics Services LLC (RPS), MedStar RadAmerica, and NC State University, established the formation of the SoterRO workgroup to explore ways to improve patient safety in radiation therapy services. The group name termed “SoterRO©” is inspired by Soter, Greek sprit of safety, preservation, and deliverance from harm. The first initiative of the workgroup focuses is the creation of an error reduction decision algorithm using RPS data provided by multiple radiation oncology centers. This algorithm will be powered using machine learning and AI tools to improve productivity and patient safety. The group meets weekly to map out short- and long-term strategies. The group will be actively submitting various grant applications to federal foundations and institutions for Phase I funding.
