Conclusion No quantity could be identified as superior. More experimental data with smaller statistical uncertainties are needed to determine the best input parameter for phenomenological RBE models for protons. Alternatively, it might be the case that for protons, many of the various beam quality quantities might correlate to such a high degree that the corresponding RBE predictions become only marginally different, thereby making the choice of beam quality quantity almost inconsequential. This question will be resolved in the future when more RBE data are available.

In MRI-guided RT this can have implications for the accuracy of dose delivery. MRI is now available in all RT facilities in Denmark and to monitor image quality, a national network for quality assurance of MR images in RT in Denmark (NIMBUS) was founded in 2018. The aim of the network is to improve quality by performing and sharing measurements and knowledge across all centers in Denmark and in particular to secure image quality in national clinical trials.
