First treatments for Lattice stereotactic body radiation therapy using magnetic resonance image guided radiation therapy [PDF]

Clinical and Translational Radiation Oncology, 2023
Two abdominal patients were treated with Lattice stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) using magnetic resonance guided radiation therapy (MRgRT). This is one of the first reported treatments of Lattice SBRT with the use of MRgRT.

Dosimetric study for spine stereotactic body radiation therapy: magnetic resonance guided linear accelerator versus volumetric modulated arc therapy

Radiology and Oncology, 2019
Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) given in 1-5 fractions is an effective treatment for vertebral metastases. Real-time magnetic resonance-guided radiotherapy (MRgRT) improves soft tissue contrast, which translates into accurate delivery of spine

Dose response of three-dimensional silicone-based radiochromic dosimeters for photon irradiation in the presence of a magnetic field

Physics and Imaging in Radiation Oncology, 2020
The magnetic field in magnetic resonance imaging guided radiotherapy (MRgRT) delivery systems influences charged-particle trajectories and hence the three-dimensional (3D) radiation dose distributions. This study investigated the dose-response as well as
