C4 Adaptive radiotherapy physics
The recent clinical introduction of MR-Linacs brings along the potential for radiotherapeutic treatments of moving lung lesions with unprecedented precision enabled by online and real-time MRI during patient irradiation. Project C4 aims to develop new methods to employ 4D-MRI for improved treatment planning, target localization and retrospective treatment delivery evaluation. The developed methods are experimentally validated in measurements with a porcine lung phantom at a clinical MR-Linac.
