New MRI tech aims to sharpen breast cancer radiation

NCT ID NCT01999062

Summary

This study tested a new automated system that uses MRI scans to guide radiation therapy for breast cancer. The goal was to see if this approach could make treatment more precise and faster for patients. It involved 63 women with breast cancer who were already scheduled for standard radiation therapy. The research focused on improving how quickly treatment could be planned and how well it accounts for breathing movements.
