Synopsis

With the successful integration of radiation therapy (RT) and MRI into a single treatment system by different vendors, MRI-guided RT (MRgRT) is being introduced into the clinics to improve RT targeting through the superior soft-tissue contrast and functional information from MRI. However, access to this novel treatment system is still limited to a few academic hospitals and large cancer centers. As MRgRT increasingly shows potentials and gains interests, it is highly desirable to disseminate the new knowledge to the wider community in RT field and MRI field. This course aims to share current clinical and research knowledge on this topic.
