An important aspect of the USZ’s MRIdian MR image-guided radiation therapy programme will be MR-guided adaptive radiotherapy, particularly stereotactic radio-surgery for treating oligo-metastatic disease, head and neck, and lung cancer.

Additionally, the new MRIdian Linac will be used as part of the hospital’s Radiomics biomarker research for response prediction and assessment, in association with the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich (ETH).
