研究概览
简要总结
This is a single centre, single arm, prospective feasibility study that aims to see whether magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as a source of image guidance before each radiation treatment fraction is feasible, and also if it may provide information that could potentially be used during the treatment to improve the radiation treatment plan.
Patients will have 5 MRIs with each of their RT sessions. If patients' RT treatment will consist of more than 5 fractions, only 5 MRIs will be done with any 5 RT fractions. Patients will be completing a short questionnaire at the end of each MRI. A patient questionnaire will also be completed at the end of the study to assess for patient satisfaction.
There will be 30 evaluable patients enrolled to the study.

研究组 & 干预措施
Pancreatic Cancer
Approximately 10 patients with pancreatic cancer will be enrolled to the study with the primary aim of determining the feasibility of using off-line MRI-guidance during the course of radiation treatment
干预措施: MRI (Other)
Liver Metastases
Approximately 10 patients with liver mets will be enrolled to the study with the primary aim of determining the feasibility of using off-line MRI-guidance during the course of radiation treatment
干预措施: MRI (Other)
Hepatocellular carcinoma
Approximately 10 patients with HCC will be enrolled to the study with the primary aim of determining the feasibility of using off-line MRI-guidance during the course of radiation treatment
干预措施: MRI (Other)
结局指标
主要结局
Patient Satisfaction Survey
时间窗: At study completion (day5 or week 5, depending on type of treatment)
To evaluate patient satisfaction with the MR guidance process, a modified version of a questionnaire previously used at our institution will be performed at the end of the study
MRI-Anxiety Questionnaire
时间窗: Prior to or before MR session 5 (day 5 or week 5, depending on type of treatment)
his instrument will be used to evaluate patient related anxiety after each MR
MRI-Anxiety Questionnaire
时间窗: Prior to or before MR session 1 (day 1 or week 1, depending on type of treatment)
This instrument will be used to evaluate patient related anxiety after each MR
MRI-Anxiety Questionnaire
时间窗: Prior to or before MR session 2 (day 2 or week 2, depending on type of treatment)
This instrument will be used to evaluate patient related anxiety after each MR
MRI-Anxiety Questionnaire
时间窗: Prior to or before MR session 3 (day 3 or week 3, depending on type of treatment)
This instrument will be used to evaluate patient related anxiety after each MR
MRI-Anxiety Questionnaire
时间窗: Prior to or before MR session 4 (day 4 or week 4, depending on type of treatment)
This instrument will be used to evaluate patient related anxiety after each MR
