ABSTRACT
Single-fraction stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) or fractionated SRS (FSRS) are well established strategies for patients with limited brain metastases. A broad spectrum of modern dedicated platforms are currently available for delivering intracranial SRS/FSRS; however, SRS/FSRS delivered using traditional CT-based platforms relies on the need for diagnostic MR images to be coregistered to planning CT scans for target volume delineation. Additionally, the on-board image guidance on traditional platforms yields limited inter-fraction and intra-fraction real-time visualization of the tumor at the time of treatment delivery. MR Linacs are capable of obtaining treatment planning MR and on-table MR sequences to enable visualization of the targets and organs-at-risk and may subsequently help identify anatomical changes prior to treatment that may invoke the need for on table treatment adaptation. Recently, an MR-guided intracranial package (MRIdian A3i BrainTxTM) was released for intracranial treatment with the ability to perform high-resolution MR sequences using a dedicated brain coil and cranial immobilization system. The objective of this report is to provide, through the experience of our first patient treated, a comprehensive overview of the clinical application of our institutional program for FSRS adaptive delivery using MRIdian's A3i BrainTx system-highlights include reviewing the imaging sequence selection, workflow demonstration, and details in its delivery feasibility in clinical practice, and dosimetric outcomes.
