An efficient and robust MRI-guided radiotherapy planning approach for targeting abdominal organs and tumours in the mouse

Preclinical CT-guided radiotherapy platforms are increasingly used but the CT images are characterized by poor soft tissue contrast. The aim of this study was to develop a robust and accurate method of MRI-guided radiotherapy (MR-IGRT) delivery to abdominal targets in the mouse. A multimodality crad...
