Considerations
- QA requirements including quantifying and minimising distortion
- Errors and uncertainties
- Radiotherapy planning and margins
- Differences in requirements between MR only and MR CT fusion
- Patient set up and immobilisation
- Application to different body sites
- Image acquisition planes
- Data flow
