A non-ionising aspect in the radiation therapy workflow - MRI
Elizabeth Denney, Switzerland;
Monica Buijs, The Netherlands
In the session the speakers will illustrate the different aspects of a non-ionizing RT pathway from pre-treatment imaging to treatment. From optimal sequencing to a total MR-only workflow. The learning objectives are: • To give an introduction to MRI Sequences: Overview of different MRI sequences commonly used in radiation oncology, including T1-weighted, T2-weighted and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI). • To demonstrate the clinical Applications: Discussing the clinical significance of understanding MRI sequences in radiation oncology, such as in tumor delineation, treatment planning, motion monitoring and monitoring treatment response. • To present Case Studies and Examples: Presenting case studies or examples showcasing the importance of accurately interpreting MRI sequences in clinical decision-making. • To highlight the Training and Learning Resources: Highlighting resources or methods for training and educating radiation oncologists, radiologists, or medical professionals in effectively learning and understanding MRI sequences. • To demonstrate some Future Perspectives: Discussing potential advancements or future directions in MRI technology and sequences, as well as their implications for improving clinical outcomes • To demonstrate the MR only MRIdian workflow of pancreatic cancer patients • To provide a short introduction to MR-only RT • To demonstrate the different aspects Workflow MR-only RT workflow
