Validation of dose distribution computation on sCT images generated from MRI scans by Philips MRCAT

ConclusionsThe dose calculation accuracy on MRCAT was not significantly compromised in the majority of clinical relevant DVH points. The introduction of MRCAT into practise would eliminate systematic errors, increase patients’ comfort and reduce treatment expenses. Institutions interested in MRCAT commissioning must, however, consider changes to established workflow.
