Lumonus Partners with Memorial Sloan Kettering to Enhance AI Radiation Therapy Planning

Apr 8, 2026
Lumonus has announced a collaboration with Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center to integrate and co-develop the ECHO optimization engine for automated radiation therapy treatment planning, aiming to improve efficiency and plan quality.

Lumonus has announced a collaboration with Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center to advance automated radiation therapy treatment planning, according to a press release.

As part of the partnership, Lumonus will license and co-develop MSK’s ECHO mathematical optimization engine within its Lumonus AI platform. The companies will also invest in joint research focused on improving automation in radiation therapy planning.

ECHO uses constraint-based mathematical methods to generate radiation therapy treatment plans from first principles. Developed over nearly a decade and supported by peer-reviewed research, the system has been used clinically to enhance the consistency and quality of treatment planning.

The collaboration aims to combine ECHO’s optimization methods with Lumonus’ workflow automation tools to enable broader adoption of automated planning in radiation oncology.

Tensordyne Napier: What If One Rack Could Do the Work of Nine?

Tensordyne

This Tensordyne whitepaper presents Napier, an inference-focused AI processor and rack-scale system based on the company’s TDN Math logarithmic number system. It examines infrastructure requirements for large mixture-of-experts and agentic models, compares major inference architecture approaches, and details the TDN AIP processor, TDN72 pod, TDN Link fabric, and Napier Ultra configuration. The paper reports simulation-based performance, cost, and accuracy-validation results, including Tensordyne’s projected comparison of one Napier rack with a nine-rack Nvidia Rubin plus Groq deployment; the chip is reported as taped out and in fabrication.
