Published purpose

MagnetTx Oncology Solutions is developing a hybrid radiotherapy device that combines a medical linear accelerator with an MRI scanner to produce the ultimate radiotherapy treatment device. This project will develop the imaging software tools required to integrate the MR images into the treatment sequence to allow pretreatment images to be compared to treatment planning images to allow the patient to be precisely positioned for their treatment. Integrating MR images into the radiotherapy treatment machine will ultimately provide better treatments for the cancer patients in Alberta, Canada and the world.
