Validation of echo planar imaging based diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging on a 0.35 T MR-Linac

Background and Purpose: The feasibility of acquiring diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) images on an MR-Linac for quantitative response assessment during radiotherapy was explored. DWI data obtained with a Spin Echo Echo Planar Imaging sequence adapted for a 0.35 T MR-Linac were examined and compared...
