Abstract
MR-Guided Radiation Therapy (MRIgRT) has been made possible only due to the ingenuity and commitment of commercial radiation therapy system vendors. Unlike conventional linear accelerator systems, MRIgRT systems have had to overcome significant and previously untested techniques to integrate the MRI systems with the radiation therapy delivery systems. Each of these three commercial systems has developed different approaches to integrating their MR and Linac functions. Each has also decided on a different main magnetic field strength, from 0.35T to 1.5T, as well as different design philosophies for other systems, such as the patient support assembly and treatment planning workflow. This paper is intended to provide the reader with a detailed understanding of each system's configuration so that the reader can better interpret the scientific literature concerning these commercial MRIgRT systems.
