AI in oncology must augment, not replace, expert physicists' judgment

Mendes argues that AI implementation in cancer treatment planning succeeds only when designed to restore expert time and decision-making authority, not eliminate it. She advocates through practitioner profiles that the most valuable AI integration happens at the workflow level—where technology handles standardization and efficiency tasks while physicians retain clinical judgment and patient-centered care ownership.
