Building world's first prototype to track moving tumors with real-time MRI during proton therapy
Building world’s first prototype to track moving tumors with real-time MRI during proton therapy Researchers at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR) want to build the worlds first prototype that tracks moving tumors with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in real time during proton therapy. They are combining a rotating open MRI device, designed for the LINAC-MR system from Alberta Health Services, with an actively scanned clinical-akin proton beam at OncoRay, the Dresden-based Natio...
