    Abstract: Magnetic resonance (MR) guided radiation therapy (MRgRT) enables control over the delivery of radiation based on patient motion indicated by MR imaging (MRI) images captured during radiation delivery. A method for MRgRT includes: simultaneously using one or more radiation therapy heads to deliver radiation and an MRI system to perform MRI; using a processor to determine whether one or more gates are triggered based on at least a portion of MRI images captured during the delivery of radiation; and in response to determining that one or more gates are triggered based on at least a portion of the MRI images captured during the delivery of radiation, suspending the delivery of radiation.

    Abstract: A photon therapy delivery system can deliver radiation therapy to a patient via a photon beam. The system can utilize a controller configured to facilitate delivery of radiation therapy via a photon beam and also a particle beam. This can include receiving radiation therapy beam information for radiation therapy treatment of a patient utilizing the particle beam and photon beam. Also, patient magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data can be received during the radiation therapy treatment. Utilizing the patient MRI data, real-time calculations of a location of dose deposition for the particle beam and for the photon beam can be determined taking into account interaction properties of soft tissues through which the particle beam passes.
