Additionally, a wide range of clinical radiotherapy applications will be presented.There are 2 optional, parallel delineation sessions: tumor delineations for radiation oncologists and organ at risk delineation for RTTs.MRI protocol development (1.5 day)This final part is specifically aimed towards hospitals working on Philips platforms. Theoretical background of Philips MR protocols will be alternated with practical hands-on sessions with the protocols on MR simulators and patient setup demonstrations.The course will be given from September 23th – 27th, 2019.The course language is English.For more information and registration: MRLinac and MRI in Radiotherapy course
