Abstract

This work reports on the first seven patients treated with gating and baseline drift correction on the high-field MR-Linac system. Dosimetric analysis showed that the active motion management system improved congruence to the planned dose, efficiently mitigating detrimental effects of intrafraction motion in the upper abdomen.
