Abstract

This chapter contains considerations for imaging patients for radiotherapy treatment planning (RTP) using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The techniques, patient positioning recommendations, and immobilization strategies described are all suitable for RTP prior to online MR image-guided radiotherapy (MRIgRT). However, the guidance provided can be utilized for all radiotherapy patients where MR imaging is indicated for radiotherapy planning purposes.
