ABSTRACT
Magnetic resonance-guided radiotherapy (MRgRT) not only offers real time magnetic resonance (MR) imags with high-resolution and good soft tissue contrast to guide the delineation of the target volume during simulation and daily radiotherapy, but also reveals the position and shape changes of the target volumes and organs at risk (OAR) during treatment dynamically, which provides the evidence for the individual-adptive planning revision. Thus, MRgRT has the potential to dramatically impact cancer research and treatment. And this treatment mode is theoretically more suitable for the disease with obvious tissue deformation, such as breast. In this review, application of MR scanner with a linear accelerator (MR-linac) in radiotherapy workflows for breast cancer patients was summarized, and its implications and opportunities on breast cancer irradiation were highlighted.
