SYMPOSIUM
Applications and challenges in dosimetry for MR-linacs
11:00 - 12:00 | STRAUS 2-3
MR-linacs are being installed in many centres. In this symposium we will journey
through the processes of understanding how to measure dose in the presence of
a B-field, how to commission a MR-linac and set up regular quality assurance
procedures, including lessons which can be transferred from a Co-MR system.
Finally, we will address the pre treatment verification which is needed for each
patient, including comparing which systems might be best for which purposes.
