Postprandial Changes in Thoracic Aortic Flow Detected by 4D Flow MRI May Influence Study Results
ABSTRACT Background While there is a growing body of data using 4D flow MRI to distinguish between normal and abnormal blood flow values in the thoracic aorta, the extent of physiological variation or lack thereof is potentially undervalued. Physiological processes such as postprandial changes to hemodynamics might influence data, normal values, follow‐

This analysis included quantification of intrafraction motion in pancreas stereotactic ablative radiotherapy treated on the MR‐Linac, leading to the development of adjusted (PTV) margins. Intrafraction motion indicated an average target displacement of 1–3 mm, resulting in an adjusted PTV margin of 2 mm in the right–left and superior–inferior ...
