Abstract

METHODS

A process inspired by the Delphi method was employed to determine levels of consensus using a series of questionnaires interspersed with controlled opinion feedback.

CONCLUSIONS

These results indicate variability in MRI simulation approaches that are largely explained by the use of MRI in combination with CT.

RESULTS

In general, full consensus was reached regarding general principles of MRI simulation. However, the level of consensus decreased when site-specific principles of MRI simulation were considered.

AIM

To determine the levels at which consensus could be reached regarding general and site-specific principles of MRI simulation for offline MRI-aided external beam radiation treatment planning.
