A streamlined smart delivery of MRI-guided adaptive radiation therapy can greatly reduce cancer treatment sessions and side effects, according to a keynote presentation by Professor Ben Slotman from the Netherlands today at the 71st Annual Scientific Meeting of The Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Radiologists (RANZCR).
