Potential benefit of MRI-guided IMRT for flank irradiation in pediatric patients with Wilms' tumor.

CONCLUSIONS: Imaging data in children with WT demonstrated that the PTV margin could be reduced isotropically down to 2 mm when using the IMRTMRI compared to the VMATCBCT workflow. The former results in a dose reduction to the OARs while maintaining target coverage.
