Facilitating 1.5T MR-Linac adoption: Workflow strategies and practical tips.
Background: MR-guided radiotherapy (MRgRT) offers new opportunities but also introduces workflow complexities requiring dedicated optimization. Implementing magnetic resonance linear accelerator (MR-Linac) technology comes with challenges such as prolonged treatment times and workflow integration issues.
Purpose: We present here our experience and share practical tips and tricks to streamline MR-Linac implementation, optimize workflow efficiency, and improve coordination.
Methods: The first 150 patients treated with a 1.5T MR-Linac Unity® at our institution were analyzed. Treatments were assessed based on session recordings, difficulties encountered were identified, and solutions documented.
Results: A total of 726 fractions were delivered, with a mean treatment time of 48 minutes. Key optimizations included standardized operating procedures (SOPs) and structured briefing sheets, leading to reduced delays and improved treatment consistency.
Conclusion: Strategic workflow standardization and optimized communication tools significantly improved the ability to deliver high-quality, patient-centered care by streamlining processes and enhancing coordination among team members. These insights provide practical guidance for centers integrating MR-Linac technology.
期刊介绍：
Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics is an international Open Access publication dedicated to clinical medical physics. JACMP welcomes original contributions dealing with all aspects of medical physics from scientists working in the clinical medical physics around the world. JACMP accepts only online submission.
JACMP will publish:
-Original Contributions: Peer-reviewed, investigations that represent new and significant contributions to the field. Recommended word count: up to 7500.
-Review Articles: Reviews of major areas or sub-areas in the field of clinical medical physics. These articles may be of any length and are peer reviewed.
-Technical Notes: These should be no longer than 3000 words, including key references.
-Letters to the Editor: Comments on papers published in JACMP or on any other matters of interest to clinical medical physics. These should not be more than 1250 (including the literature) and their publication is only based on the decision of the editor, who occasionally asks experts on the merit of the contents.
-Book Reviews: The editorial office solicits Book Reviews.
-Announcements of Forthcoming Meetings: The Editor may provide notice of forthcoming meetings, course offerings, and other events relevant to clinical medical physics.
-Parallel Opposed Editorial: We welcome topics relevant to clinical practice and medical physics profession. The contents can be controversial debate or opposed aspects of an issue. One author argues for the position and the other against. Each side of the debate contains an opening statement up to 800 words, followed by a rebuttal up to 500 words. Readers interested in participating in this series should contact the moderator with a proposed title and a short description of the topic
