Do you see MR Linac having a role in the treatment of CNS disease?

MR Linac has a lot of potential in the management of CNS neoplasms. To best understand its potential, it is critical to understand what the genuine value proposition of the MR Linac really is. At its heart, and rather simplistically, many view it as simply another option for image guidance to support IGRT. In that very basic context, the MR Linac is genuinely most useful where soft tissue detail and discrimination are required, such as, for example, in the abdomen, where the soft-tissue resolution of CT (especially cone-beam CT, even with all the bells and software whistles) remains suboptimal.

In the CNS, cone-beam CT, or even in-room CT, is simply inadequate to visualize most tumors (and if it were in fact adequate, no one would be using ...
