Abstract
The advent of MRI guided radiotherapy (MRIgRT) offers enormous promise in the treatment of prostate cancer. The MR-linac offers men the opportunity to receive daily MR imaging to guide and influence their radiotherapy treatment. This review focuses on the advantages that MRIgRT potentially offers as well as any potential disadvantages to MRIgRT that may have been recognized thus far. Ongoing clinical trials evaluating this novel treatment platform for the treatment of prostate cancer are also discussed.
