A description of the first commercially available magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided radiation therapy (RT) system is provided. The system consists of a split 0.35-T MR scanner straddling 3 Co-60 heads mounted on a ring gantry, each head equipped with independent doubly focused multileaf collimators. The MR and RI systems share a common isocenter, enabling simultaneous and continuous MRI during RI delivery. An on-couch adaptive RI treatment-planning system and integrated MRI-guided RI control system allow for rapid adaptive planning and beam delivery control based on the visualization of soft tissues. Treatment of patients with this system commenced at Washington University in January 2014. (C) 2014 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
