摘要: In radiation oncology, a magnetic resonance apparatus is used to plan treatment regimen. The oncologist uses the features of slice width selection, and depth selection better ascertain where medial malignancy within patient. order facilitate user-friendly atmosphere for oncologist, new user control interface (50) added an MRI that includes controls normally found on typical oncology linear accelerator. A conversion algorithm (52) translate linac input into imaging region sequence images malignancy. Along each planned trajectory MR projection are superimposed delineate clearly beam aiming collimation adjustments.
