The Australian MRI-Linac Program: Transforming The Science And Clinical Practice Of Cancer Radiotherapy
Funder
National Health and Medical Research Council
Funding Amount
$7,001,475.00
Summary
Radiotherapy is indicated for 48% of cancer patients. The Australian MRI-Linac Program will change the science and clinical practice of radiotherapy by explicitly targeting the dynamic anatomy and physiology of cancer, increasing cancer control and decreasing treatment side effects. Successful completion of this program will have a direct impact on the treatment and lives of Australian cancer patients in the foreseeable future.
