ESTRO course on Image Guided Radiotherapy in Clinical Practice 2018

Future: MRI informed real-time planning

• 3D gradient echo T1-weighted mDixon sequence scan time: 40 s; (Philips

Ingenia 1.5T)

• MRI at t = 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 minutes

• Bladder CTV, bowel loops and rectum were delineated on MRI_0 and

MRI_10

• Dose plans calculated on MRI_0

• Target coverage assessed on MRI_10

• Reduction in PTV course average (median 304 cc compared to plan

selection)

• Improved bowel loop sparing (V25)

• V95 <98% in 2 patients (intra-fraction shifts)
