I would also add that a radiation machine that has a built-in is significantly more accurate than one that does not, and it’s been proven in the mirage randomized trial study. This study showed that side effects and toxicity were much less when that type of radiation machine was used because the margins were smaller, so there was less healthy tissue exposed.

@bens1 Did you mean to say built-in MRI? I had my 2nd of 5 treatments yesterday, with an MRI-guided Elekta machine.
