The integration of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for guidance in external beam
radiotherapy has faced significant research and development efforts in recent years. The …

With the rapid increase in clinical treatments with MRI-linacs, a consistent, harmonized and
sustainable ground for reference dosimetry in MRI-linacs is needed. Specific for reference …

MR image‐guided radiotherapy has the potential to improve patient care, but integration of
an MRI scanner with a linear accelerator adds complexity to the commissioning process …

The International Commission on Radiation Units and Measurements (ICRU), since its
inception in 1925, has had as its principal objective the development of internationally …

On-line image guidance using magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is expected to improve the
targeting accuracy of proton therapy. However, to date no combined system exists. In this …

Purpose To use EGSnrc Monte Carlo simulations for magnetic field dosimetry to determine
optimal measurement orientations, calculate beam quality conversion factors for 32 …

As a prerequisite for clinical treatments it was necessary to characterize the Elekta 1.5 T MRI-
linac 7 MV FFF radiation beam. Following acceptance testing, beam characterization data …

Purpose The purpose of this study was to acquire beam data for an MR‐linac, with and
without a 1.5 T magnetic field, by using a variety of commercially available detectors to …

A generic formalism is proposed for reference dosimetry in the presence of a magnetic field.
Besides the regular correction factors from the conventional reference dosimetry formalisms …

In magnetic resonance (MR) guided radiotherapy, the magnetic field-dependent change in
the dose response of ionization chambers is typically included by means of a correction …
