Early or late rectal toxicity can be predicted with a high probability via dosimetric and physical data and machine learning algorithms of patients who underwent prostate +/- pelvic radiotherapy. The fact that rectal toxicity can be predicted before treatment, which may result in limiting the dose and duration of treatment, makes us think that artificial intelligence can enter our daily practice in a short time in this sense.
