Celebrating Global Collaboration in MR-Linac Research! The MR-Linac Consortium continues to thrive as a truly international community, united by a shared mission to advance precision radiation therapy. Don’t miss this conversation with Dr. Qian Peng, Radiation Oncologist in China: lnkd.in/eve3usMq

At the 20th Consortium meeting, it was inspiring to connect with so many members and see the progress being made in MRgRT. We're grateful to all who contributed their expertise and enthusiasm. Until next time!

We are thrilled that Rad Chat joined us at the MR-Linac Consortium meeting! Rad Chat is a multi award winning podcast, education and social media platform focusing on radiotherapy and oncology. Curious to hear what Consortium attendees shared with them. Listen here: radchat.transistor.fm/episodes

Today we awarded the best clinical, technical and young investigator abstracts. Congrats to this year's winners: Julia Peltenburg and Marlies Nowee, Xiangyu Zhang and Tariq Lalmahomed for their work in motion management, prostate cancer QoL and liver oligometastases treatment.

The MR-Linac Consortium meeting kicked off today with 300+ members focused on sharing clinical data, research and the future of MRgRT. Huge thanks to our 2025 Organization Committee and Clinical Steering Committee Chair, Dr. Alison Tree, for driving MR-adaptive forward.

📄 This MOMENTUM study highlights the safety and tolerability of MRI-guided SBRT for liver metastases, showing promising results in maintaining disease control with manageable side effects. Patients reported a stable quality of life throughout treatment. lnkd.in/eN8sEzmz #MOMENTUM #LiverCancer

Research from UTSW explores how PSMA-PET imaging can guide adaptive SABR in high-risk prostate cancer—refining tumor boosts based on response, without adding treatment time. MR-Linac and CBCT systems can offer practical paths to personalized, biology-driven radiotherapy. lnkd.in/e4pHnZg2

We’re thrilled to announce that the speaker lineup for the MR-Linac Consortium Meeting this November is confirmed! Last year’s meeting brought together brilliant minds, bold ideas, and transformative conversations in MR-guided radiotherapy and this year promises to be even more impactful.

This study explores the feasibility and early outcomes of MR-guided stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (MRgSTAR) for patients with synchronous oligometastatic prostate cancer (OMPC). ✅ 100% 3-year overall survival ✅ 95.2% progression-free survival www.frontiersin.org/journals/onc...

This retrospective analysis of five patients treated in the MOMENTUM study highlights that daily MR-adaptation reduces dose variability and OAR exposure compared to MR-guided plans alone for cervical cancer. #CervicalCancer #MOMENTUM medicaljournalssweden.se/actaoncologi...

🚨A recent study leveraging MOMENTUM’s extensive dataset underlines that online adaptive MR-guided radiotherapy (MRgRT) shows promise for patients with non-metastatic pancreatic cancer. ✅ Maintained quality of life ✅ Significant symptom improvement at 6 months www.redjournal.org/article/S036...

Advancing MR-Guided Radiotherapy in Esophageal Cancer A recent study from UMC Utrecht, explores the ATS-lite workflow—a simplified approach to online adaptive MRgRT which streamlines treatment delivery to a median of 23 minutes, while maintaining 90% target coverage.

Researchers in Nijmegen, Netherlands, have created an open-access online tool for early economic evaluation. This tool provides insights into the cost-effectiveness of MRIgRT. lnkd.in/e2sRxFRs Users can input their own data lnkd.in/erDkxXpF www.mrlconsortium.org hashtag#ProgressThroughCollaboration
