[I186] New technologies for MR guided radiotherapy
Physica Medica, 2018 Purpose Provide an overview of technological developments in MR guided Radiotherapy. The key concept in MR guided Radiotherapy (MRgRT) is that the soft tissue contrast allows direct visualization of the tumor and organs-at-risk [1] . In this way an optimal plan can be devised for the actual position, shape and motion characteristics of a patient for

Towards real-time motion estimation for MR-guided radiotherapy
, 2023 The ultimate potential of the MR-linac is real-time adaptive MR-guided radiotherapy (aMRgRT), i.e. adapt the radiation plan in real-time according to real-time 3D motion estimates. One of the major technical roadblocks towards achieving this goal is the real-time 3D motion estimation. This thesis presents two new approaches in this context.
