Brief Title: Feasibility of Online MR-guided Radiotherapy on a 1.5T MR-Linac
Official Title: Feasibility of Imaging and Radiotherapy on a Novel 1.5 T Hybrid Magnetic Resonance Imaging - Linear Accelerator System (MR-Linac)
Study ID: NCT04172753
Brief Summary: This study investigates the feasibility of imaging and treatment on a novel 1.5 T MR-Linac radiotherapy hybrid device.
Detailed Description: Novel hybrid devices combine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and a linear accelerator in a single device. The superior soft tissue contrast compared with cone-beam computed tomography based treatment and the possibility for daily plan adaptation promise a higher precision of treatment, better target volume coverage and normal tissue sparing. In a first step the present study will test the feasibility of imaging and treatment on the 1.5 T MR-Linac.
