• The research ranges from detector development, dose calculation and biology-guided treatment . Research projects .g. in Essen (WPE), Dresden (OncoRay), Marburg (MIT) and Austria (MedAustron), the DFG- funded research training group Advanced Methods and Technologies for . PT is a highly effective and precise radiotherapy technique, while

magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)

provides anatomical information with the highest soft tissue contrast.

However, this advanced imaging modality has not been directly integrated as basis for treatment planning yet.

Thus, more research is needed to realise the full potential of

MRI-
