Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Feasibility of online MR guided Radiotherapy

    Treatment of a patient is considered feasible when 85% of treatments were completed as planned in this patient

    During every single patients treatment (i.e. between one to seven weeks after the first application of radiotherapy)

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Time analysis

    During every single patients treatment (i.e. between one to seven weeks after the first application of radiotherapy)
