NEW YORK and SYDNEY, Sept. 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Lumonus, a healthcare technology company transforming cancer care with its AI-powered platform, today announced a multi-year agreement with Smarter Radiation Oncology® (SRO), a company incubated by Northwell Health. Together, the organizations will advance the delivery of high-quality, standardized radiation therapy by combining Lumonus AI with SRO's evidence-based treatment protocols.
Developed at Northwell Health, the largest health system in New York State, SRO's model for radiation therapy has systematized nearly 90% of treatments across its cancer centers. The approach sets clear prescribing standards, reduces variability, minimizes clinician workload, and improves safety and efficiency. Published studies confirm that SRO's directives enhance care quality and consistency in radiation oncology. To extend these benefits more broadly, SRO was launched to make its protocols available to cancer centers worldwide.
Lumonus' AI Physician platform simplifies oncology workflows by automating administrative tasks such as clinical preparation and documentation. By embedding SRO directives into the platform, clinicians will be able to access validated, real-world prescribing standards directly at the point of care. This integration supports faster, safer, and more consistent treatment decisions for patients.
"Smarter Radiation Oncology reflects years of work to improve quality and consistency in radiation therapy across our network," said Louis Potters, MD, Chair of Radiation Medicine at Northwell Health. "Through this licensing agreement with Lumonus, we can now make these standards available more broadly to the global oncology community."
Keith Hansen, CEO of Lumonus, added: "Working with SRO allows us to incorporate their proven directives into the Lumonus AI Physician platform, giving cancer centers access to evidence-based prescribing standards. Together, we are helping physicians deliver safer, more efficient care while keeping pace with the latest clinical evidence."
