NCT03238170

Brief Summary

To assess the feasibility of acquiring an MR scan in the radiotherapy treatment position as part of the patient's radiotherapy pathway and incorporating the data into our radiotherapy planning systems, so that it can be potentially used to reduce healthy tissue exposure to radiation. Subsequently, the protocols and procedures established can be used to put the technique into routine clinical practice.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for MRI-simulation for prostate patients

    Write a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for MRI-scanning of prostate patients in the radiotherapy treatment position so that their data can be used in the treatment planning for either in-direct or MRI-only planning

    6 months

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Clinical Protocol for in-direct MRI planning for prostate

    6 months

  • Clinical Protocol for direct MRI-only planning for prostate

    18 months

Study Arms (1)

MR-Simulation

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients will have 1 MRI scan appointment, using the Siemens Aera® (Siemens AG Healthcare, Erlangen, Germany) on the same day as their treatment planning CT scan. The MR scan will be performed in the radiotherapy treatment position.

Device: MRI scan
