Synopsis

Hybrid MR/radiotherapy MR-Linac devices enable dose adaptation based on daily imaging. Saturation transfer MRI, including quantitative magnetization transfer (qMT) and chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST), have been shown to predict treatment response in glioblastoma. Here, in a proof-of-principle study, we demonstrated the feasibility of retrospectively generating dose-escalated radiation plans based on qMT semi-solid fraction maps acquired on the MR-Linac. Treatment plans with a 115-120% boost dose were successfully generated in all four patients and adhered to clinical organs-at-risk dose constraints.
