“Unity” (MR-LINAC) workflow and patient cases

نویسندگان

چکیده

Synopsis:Over the past years, MR image guided radiation therapy has been developed. With development of MR-LINAC technology, it became possible to acquire high-field 1.5T image. High quality improved visualization both target and OAR compared CBCT. Furthermore, online adaptive planning system advanced. So that responds immediately changes in tumor position, shape biology. This presentation will introduce latest machine called “Unity” its workflow. Also, share few cases Unity treatment patients. Synopsis: Over

Magnetic decoupling of the linac in a low field biplanar linac-MR system.

PURPOSE The integration of a low field biplanar magnetic resonance (MR) imager and linear accelerator (linac) causes magnetic interference at the linac due to the MR fringe fields. In order to eliminate this interference, passive and active magnetic shielding designs are investigated. METHODS The optimized design of passive magnetic shielding was performed using the finite element method. The...

Investigating the relationship between how a chief complaint is expressed and the patient workflow

Objective: Emergency departments and hospital emergency departments are important due to their critical role in providing urgent medical care to patients in dire need of medical interventions. Checking bottlenecks in new conditions and planning to reduce bed occupancy and hospitalization is needed. The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between the patient’s chief complain...

First MR images obtained during megavoltage photon irradiation from a prototype integrated linac-MR system.

The authors report the first magnetic resonance (MR) images produced by their prototype MR system integrated with a radiation therapy source. The prototype consists of a 6 MV linac mounted onto the open end of a biplanar 0.2 T permanent MR system which has 27.9 cm pole-to-pole opening with flat gradients (40 mT/m) running under a TMX NRC console. The distance from the magnet isocenter to the li...
