Abstract

See full text

The present disclosure relates to a method for controlling a magnetic resonance imaging guided radiation therapy apparatus comprising a magnetic resonance imaging system. The method comprises: acquiring magnetic resonance data using the magnetic resonance imaging system and the pulse sequence from an imaging volume; segmenting the magnetic resonance data into a plurality of segments indicating respective tissues in the imaging volume; creating a bulk electron density map of the imaging volume from the plurality of segments; displaying the bulk electron density map and radiation dose distributions for the plurality of segments on a graphical user interface, wherein the radiation dose distributions are determined using the bulk electron density map; receiving a modification signal for modifying at least a first segment of the segments; recreating the bulk electron density map using the modified first segment, and recalculating the radiation dose distribution using the bulk electron density map; redisplaying the bulk electron density map and the radiation dose distributions on the graphical user interface.
