139 MR-guided adaptive stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy (MRgSABR) in thoracic tumours

Stereotactic-ablative body radiotherapy (SABR) is an effective modality for early-stage lung cancer and thoracic metastases. However, target motion, ultra-central/central location and respiratory comorbidity compromise optimal dose delivery. MR-guided-SABR (MRgSABR) provides real-time tracking and daily-adaptation, allowing higher doses compared to conventional-SABR. This may improve local control (LC), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) while applying an isotoxic approach.
