Adaptive Proton Therapy for Pediatric Patients: Improving the Quality of the Delivered Plan With On-Treatment MRI

Pencil-beam scanning proton therapy is particularly sensitive to anatomic changes, which may affect the delivered dose distribution. This study examined whether offline adaptation using on-treatment magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan during proton therapy could improve plan quality for pediatric patients.
