Abstract

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Simulation-free radiotherapy offers improved efficiency for adaptive treatments. This planning study presents a simulation-free pre-treatment workflow for prostate cancer online adaptive radiotherapy on a MR-Linac. Previously acquired diagnostic MR images are used to create a reference treatment plan without clinician input, and adapted plans are then simulated, and compare…
