SYMPOSIUM MR-guided radiation therapy: hybrid machines and treatment adaptation 14:30 - 15:45 | Auditorium This session will describe the state of art of MR-guided radiation therapy approaches (MRgRT). The description of the innovative adaptive workflow will start from the experimental animal setting, discussing its feasibility for glioblastoma in rat models. The major MRI technical aspects of the hybrid irradiation of humans, such as tissue contrast and motion management during delivery, will be then addressed with particular emphasis on the correlations among anatomical changes, dose accumulation and treatment adaptation solutions. Finally, initial clinical experiences of a MRgRT program will be discussed together with associated research strategies and selected clinical examples.

Chair: D. Thorwarth (Germany) Co-chair: L. Boldrini (Italy)
