Initial clinical experience with magnetic resonance-guided radiotherapy in pediatric patients: Lessons learned from a single institution with proton therapy.

Purpose/objectives: Magnetic resonance-guided radiotherapy (MRgRT) is increasingly used in a variety of adult cancers. To date, published experience regarding the use of MRgRT in pediatric patients is limited to two case reports. We report on the use of MRgRT for pediatric patients at our institution during a four-year period and describe important considerations in the selection and application of this technology in children.

Stereotactic MR-guided online adaptive radiotherapy reirradiation (SMART reRT) for locally recurrent pancreatic adenocarcinoma: A case report.

Introduction: Stereotactic MR-guided online adaptive radiation therapy (SMART) has demonstrated a superior radiotherapeutic ratio for pancreatic patients, by enabling dose escalation while minimizing the dose to the proximal gastrointestinal organs at risk through online adaptive radiotherapy. The safe delivery of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is of particular importance in the reirradiation setting and has been historically limited to CT-based nonadaptive modalities. Herein, we report the first use of online adaptive radiotherapy in the reirradiation setting, specifically for treatment of locally recurrent pancreatic adenocarcinoma through SMART reirradiation (SMART reRT).
